Good morning! How are we faithing? You know, the more I deal with people the more I'm not really sure why God loves us. We are a messed up lot. We tend to do what our carnal desires dictate and then complain when things go badly. We keep pushing complete happiness outside of God even though all around us is the proof that is not possible. We keep doing the same things over and over and can't for the life of us understand why nothing improves. Pointing out the obvious here but we just keep on failing consistently in the same way seeking truth but refusing to accept it when it's presented. It concerns me that some will not find God in time and when they stand before him, it will be too late. I'm concerned for their eternity. I'm concerned for their welfare. Lord help us all see truth.
1Jn 5:10-15He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in him: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he hath not believed in the witness that God hath borne concerning his Son. And the witness is this, that God gave unto us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath the life; he that hath not the Son of God hath not the life. These things have I written unto you, that ye may know that ye have eternal life, even unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God. And this is the boldness which we have toward him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he heareth us: and if we know that he heareth us whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him.
Instructions right there. If you are living carnally renouncing or ignoring the truth about Jesus your petitions go nowhere. Hard line man but it is what it is. Our job as believers is to show the non believers the path to pardon and salvation.
Heavenly Father,
Grant us wisdom to see truth. Grant us eyes to see, ears to hear and tongues that edify and not tear down. Lord, forgive my sins. Come into my heart and lead me. I have failed so often it's normal and I want to be abnormal to the world. I accept your grace. Lead me. In Jesus name, amen.
If you just prayed that, if you just accepted Jesus as savior, reach out to another believer
