What in the World????

I have been thinking about the way things are.  It started with seeing the movie "Letters to Julia". Not that this blurb is about the movie. It is more about the way we are and live today. We move fast, make stupid decisions, hurt others, don't own up to our mistakes, have no manners, break our word, step on anyone in our way, and sleep with anyone who happens to come along. Today love is just a "quickie", meet one day and in bed the next, and if it does not work out, well... on to the next one!  There is no staying power, working on problems, growing together, loving each other in spite of ourselves.

It is sad, that we have become so hardened in our hearts. There is so much sexual stuff, depression, anger, pain, an unnecessary death going around. Not just in the secular world but also in the Christian world.

I am a Christian, and it pains me to see people who claim to know the God of the Universe, the Creator, the Savior of the world, the one who brings true peace and healing into our hearts,  the one who forgives and brings our mind, body and souls rest, still being tortured by their own ignorance, and lack of the knowledge of who God is and what God is really all about.

Who are you serving? What are you doing? Did you know that you don't have to be depressed or angry or hurt or sick??? Do you know God at all? And if you do, what is killing, destroying you, and stealing from you?  IT IS NOT GOD!!!! Stop blaming Him for your troubles, He wants to help you more than you want help.

"The thief's purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose (Jesus) is to give them a rich and satisfying life" John 10:10

I want so bad to see you have what God has intended you to have in this world. Jesus came to bring us life. He, Jesus, is the creator and He can re-create your heart, from the inside out. He can take your depression, pain, hurt, anger, sickness, or whatever it is that traps you and He, Jesus can help you today. I know. He has helped me. And He continues to help me. It took time. It took reading about Him in His Word. It took faith on my part. It still does. But He has changed my life. I am living proof that He is alive. And I want to share Him with everyone. I want you to have the peace that passes all understanding that Jesus has given me.

But..... not all will see it or have it. Not all will choose it. For various reasons, one of which is that
"Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don't believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don't understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God." 2 Corinthians 4:4

Many don't even realize that their eyes are blinded but it is true. It is also true that God loves you!! He knows everything you have done or thought, and He loves you anyway. He wants you to choose Him. And if you do choose Him, He will remove the veil that Satan has blinded you with. And He will open up your spiritual eyes and you will see His love and truth, and you will have rest.

There will always be strife in the world and sadly, in the Christian church, because not all of us walk by faith and trust God and know Him and His ways.

I pray that each one of you, will choose life. A life of forgiveness and rest. A Life that starts here today and a life for eternity. Why keep all the hurt, anger, strife, sickness, pain, in your heart. God is more than willing to re-create you from the inside. It truly is a miracle... what God can do.  

Blessings to you!!
