No matter how many times we mess up in life. No matter how many times we run off and live how we want to over what God provides us, Jesus is always willing to receive us. I know in life we get busy and we get selfish and most of those times we think we have control and forget that it is truly an illusion. You see every move that is made in sin that does not result in death just means you were protected by the Holy Spirit to not get the full wrath of that sin. The consequences may still happen to some degree but overall Mercy and Grace are granted to His Beloved. That is me and you.
When I start to get numb in life is usually when I realize I am missing Jesus. It does not mean I haven’t been in contact with him but it has had no depth. I let life get a hold of me or feelings and I run with those. They are so easy to blame for sin and in the end Jesus is always there and is always the answer. He has so much for us to gain and just asks us to show this through our faith. He asks for faith the size of a mustard seed and we could move mountains. My prayer is that I would start to have the same faith I have in the bus drivers that get us to our games and tournaments that I would start to have in Jesus!! COULD YOU IMAGINE?
I literally never asks the bus driver if they know where they are going or how they are going to get there. I get my team, get on the bus and say we are ready. I do not know their driver record, driving credentials or even how long they have been driving a bus. Yet I take my team and my safety in their hands and have faith they will get us to the right destination. Then we have Jesus who simply asks us to have a little bit of faith in him and we could move mountains. I have trouble with that faith because I get greedy in life and I want things to happen on my time.
Well no matter who we are or what we do,when we choose to repent and turn to Jesus, He is there with open arms ready to embrace us. I am there now, but I think I want to stay here for a while. A clean slate feels weird and almost like you shouldn’t get one but that is why Jesus did what he did for us. I know its been a while since I have written but you can get ready to hear more from me as Jesus does his work within. AMEN
One Love, One King, All Christ
