"See? We agree on something!" |
Tonight was a prayer time in which I learned several things. But the one most important involved a prayer for her- and others like her- whose all-inclusive, tolerant hearts have nothing but hate for those she disagrees with- especially those who love the Lord. "Lord," I said, paraphrasing myself, "You can open the hardest heart, and replace it with a "heart of flesh" (Ezekiel 36:26 for your benefit, He already knew). Why can't you do it for (insert your favorite committed unbeliever) ?"
Because they made their choices long ago. I cannot do anything for them if they choose not to let Me. They will one day ask why, and I will have to say, "This is what you chose."
"This is what you chose."
We will all hear this one day beyond this world. But which way will we be facing when we hear it?
"As for I and my house, we shall serve the Lord. " (Joshua 24:15)
But what about the Joy Behars you know? What about you?
The prophets prophesy falsely,
And the priests rule by their own power;
And My people love to have it so.
But what will YOU do in the end?
(Jeremiah 5:31)

ReplyDelete---BINGO!
Very well stated (thank you, Lord).
Like you often hear me say...it comes down to CHOICES.
Some people in society just cannot seem to be rehabilitated (as their prison record and BAD choices will show).
So it goes with the spiritual kingdom. There will be those who refuse, and when their time comes and they stand before HIM, will ask why...and THEN they get the Million Dollar tour of their lives and finally see themselves.
But, you already knew THAT as well.
Good post.
Stay safe (in HIS care) up there, brother.
"Million dollar tour"... and for some of them, the sound track will be: "It's Howdy-Doody time, the show ain't worth a dime..."
DeleteI chose to be happy and skinny and I am happy if not skinny
ReplyDeleteAnd maybe your life would have been so much different if you were skinny. Just like mine would have been "better" if I had been a good looking, popular jock. But God puts us in what we are because it is the best thing for what we WILL be.
