Easy Choice – CD Swanson
“For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.” 1 John 7:16 (KJV)
Listening to the news one can see that there is angst and sorrow all over the place. It’s difficult to witness events occurring in the world, seeing evil perpetrators, and the horrific repercussions of their deplorable actions. God is not doing these evil things, man is!
There has always been Spiritual warfare going on since before the beginning of time. There was a great battle even before the earth was formed by God’s hands. Spiritual warfare is something real and ongoing. It will be going on until Christ returns with His army, and battles the evil forces to make His Kingdom here on Earth.
Those of us who choose to have real fellowship with Him, experience His grace and feel His love. When we walk in the light, it means we believe God’s truth, as revealed in His word. We must continue to make a sustained effort to follow Him in His word and deed. We are all sinners, and we must try to formulate our existence in what He expects from us.
If we claim that we’ve never sinned, we’re in essence saying, we don’t need the efficacy of Christ’s death, therefore making a mockery of God. We all try to live without sin, but we are all susceptible to sin. If we do fall into sin, repent and forsake that particular sin.
Not believing or accepting Christ, one can see where that might lead many astray.
So don’t say “where is God?” God is and always will be here. God is waiting to embrace each of us with His love and protection. Although we might be going through a difficult time, it's inherently easier with God in our corner.
I will serve Him, and Him alone, the choice is simple.
How about you?
“Thank You Father, for Your strength, truth, light and love, in Jesus’ name, Amen.”
