You have every right.............

And Jesus


has every right

not to forgive you.


But He Has.






Honestly.


Come on now.
Are we all so deceived? So Proud? Seriously, do we think that we are better than each other? Or that we can actually make others think we are something we are not?


It is so sad. I suppose it is truth for many. Sad part is that no matter who we are we will never fool G_D. For He knows who we are despite our feeble attempt to mask it. Also so sad to think that so many of us spend so much time trying to "mask" who we are, (i.e. what we are made up of our joys, sorrows, hurts disappointments betrayls .....etc) for various reasons and to no avail. In the end we are who we are inside and that is who G_D will judge.
That person, the inside person, is also the person G_D loves and sent His son  to die for. The Lord is not interested in all the outside stuff. It's the inside stuff. (1Sam 16:7)


So...anyway....
I know life is difficult. Everyone has hard days....weeks....months maybe even years. 
Goodness knows I have lived through my fair share. Maybe that is why I have such a difficult time understanding, compassionately, (yes I am working on this) why people can't just get up and go....just let it go.


I have heard story upon story, as I am sure we all have, about how beyond all measure someone has over come some insurmountable tragedy in their life; or how someone has forgiven someone who has wronged them in some tremendously unbelievable way.


So why then, is it then  proving to be harder and harder to find  an average person like you or me that can walk in victory over every day trials and tribulations,or simple relational, family dysfunctions? THIS is sheer craziness! WE are supposed to be the children of G_D!
 "Known for our love for each other!"(John 13:35, Col. 3:13, Eph 4:32


My question for today is,
"Why does it always seem to have to be someone else s life story ?
Why not make it personal?"


I mean seriously....next time you hear of someone over coming something in their life and it really speaks to your heart...STOP...and think about it for a moment. Think about the obstacles you need to over come in your life. Then remember - G_d is not a respecter of persons ( Acts 10:34-35) ...then seek the Lord for your break through!


And the next time you hear that heart wrenching story of forgiveness between a long lost mother and child or father and son and it brings tears to your eyes - you know the one that moves you deep down in your gutt? Take a look in the mirror. Better yet; take a look in the family photo album and give the hurt to G_d and let the healer do his job so forgiveness can have it's full affect. ( Matthew 6:15)


Running away never really works for anyone...I think we all know that deep down inside. Especially when  we are running away from matters of the heart.


I have found that even my most insurmountable life challenges become less than a difficult to live with when I learn to face them. When I place them appropriately at the foot of my Master Yeshua HaMashiach, who then files them in the appropriate place in my heart.
It is however absolutely imperative that I stand before the Lord, forgiving and willing to be corrected and disciplined with regards to the very circumstance I have brought before His throne. With one objective in mind. Restoration.



Shalom
