Inviting other people into your drama
I was reading the book of Jonah in the Bible, and God told him to go to the city of Ninevah, but he didnt want to go, so he ends up on this ship going in the other directions away from his assignment thinking that all was well. It seem while they were sailing a storm starts to hit the seas, other people crying out to God, why are we going through this? Have you ever thought that when you are supposed to be on an assignnment and your doing what your not supposed to do God will make the situation so unbareable you have to correct what you have done wrong. I notices that when I was running, like jonah the people around me would be in so much trumoile and I said to myself these people are wo messed up why am I around them. Men I would have relationships with would be doing fine months before I met them, then the minute we were dating drama unfolds in their business and in their lives. I think about those men on the ship, how they were doing what they always did and one person's disobedience cause the whole ship to almost sink. We think our sins do not affect anyone else but us. In truth if affects everyone we are in contact with. Unless we confess our sins turn away from our sinful hearts and desires, we can be just like jonah taking a whole ship down with us unless we decide to be thrown over board into the presence of God. To humble ourselves and cry out to him acknowlege what he called us for to be servants and to do his will. Just like love it can be spread, and sin is just the same. These are two things we cannot contain, but it is better to show God's love than to spread sin which can lead to distruction. Father I thank you for recieving me into your loving arms. I thank you for giving me that second chance to come back to you. Lord continue to use me as your vessle so that your name Jehovah God will be magnified. Lord Jesus I thank you for being the redemptions for all our sins, and for making a direct way to our Glorious father. A way for us to come back home where love truly lives and salvationg through Christ Jesus reigns.
Trust
I have to say trust is the hardest for anyone. Our past tells us not to trust because of situations and circumstances. I got that, my question is what are you waiting for from God and you haven't seen it yet? Had this altered your trust in God?
