Saturday, September 21, 2013 " I am a Child of God"

Proverbs 21:30

There is no wisdom, no insight, no plan that can succeed against the Lord.

So often we watch people trying to run from God to do things their way and they end up worse off than when they began. I was told recently that I was "too strong" in my beliefs for someone to be friends with me and it was not something they were interested in so they were choosing not to converse with me any longer. I was devastated, sad, upset at myself that I blew it and lost the chance to save a soul but I came to realize that this person just wants to live their way, in their sins. I represent the Lord who is wisdom, accountability, truth and light and they want to keep their sins in the dark. I knew that instead of being sad for me, I should be sad for her for she closed the door on a person who loves them and the Lord and would have been willing to do anything, answer anything to help them better understand how wonderful our Savior is. It is then I wept for her soul for I know that I am a child of God while she remains a creation of God. There is a difference. When I came upon this verse in Proverbs it reminds me of all those that deny Him and it confirms to us all that nothing can succeed nor prosper against the Lord. Try as they might, they will fall. The enemy even knows his time reigning is fleeting so why do so many people choose to follow him? My Godly advice to anyone seeking and searching for the truth is listen to those Christians who want to bear witness to you. They may come off strong and you may want to call them a holy roller, but truth be told, they are doing what God asked us all to do...which is to spread the news about Him and we are being obedient to that command. And the even bigger truth is if they did not preach to you and lived a life like yours, you would call them a hypocrite. As for me? I love my God more and He is worth any loss. If someone cannot accept me as a child of God and respect how I live and believe, then they are better off not in my life. The day Christians begin to justify their lives by compromising, is the beginning of a steady decline so stay strong, be bold and of good cheer and remain in His will, no matter what.  Give Your Heart to Jesus.
