Odd moods I'm in these days
Last Sunday a pastor at my church said something about christians struggling with somethimes doubting God. Just waking up and wondering if they are doing it all for nothing. I was sitting there thinking, I don't do that. The thought crosses my mind but never seriously. I KNOW that there is one God who created everything and that he is HOLY. I know that that I am a fallen creation and that ALL I deserve is DEATH. I have fallen short of his glory and I deserve death, there is nothing unfair about it. But I also know that by his GRACE and MERCY through JESUS I am saved. I did nothing to deserve this. I 100% believe that Jesus came to earth and lived as 100% both God and Man. He lived a perfect life and was crucified, and then rose again. I know that all God sees now is the holiness of Jesus Christ on me. I am 100% sure of these things. No crap, no gimmick. We aren't in church, I'm not trying to say the "right answer". I am still sinful and mess up, but I am living my life for Jesus. ONLY in living a life that shows him to be worthy will I ever be happy. I have so many struggles and problems that I always fight with, but I am his. I know he is perfect and there is nothing he can't do. This life is fading, sometimes I think it won't go fast enough, but like the song says the farsighted see better things. If someone asked me "Where is your hope placed?", I would not be ashamed of my true answer. Would you?, think about it, and do yourself a favor and don't lie to yourself.
