Finding the Path, the Truth,<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

May Be Only The First Challenge,<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

(The Devil\u2019s Agents)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wait for Us.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jeremiah 5:3<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

O Lord, do your eyes not look for truth? You have struck them, but they felt no anguish; you have consumed them, but they refused to take correction. They have made their faces harder than rock; they have refused to turn back.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luke 16:10<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whoever is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much; and whoever is dishonest in a very little is dishonest also in much.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Words of Grace For Today<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If only we could get it right with just a little bit, like being faithful … and not just faithful to some confused idea of what\u2019s important, but the one thing to be faithful to that makes all the difference in the universe, God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, we cannot, not for long. We are good at getting it all wrong, no matter how long we hang on to getting a few things right. Eventually we just let the Devil have her way with us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s great that God knows the truth, even the truth about us: that we play with the Devil eventually … every day. Because God, knowing the truth, still planned for that, and responded with grace and love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imagine, for all the one\u2019s who work for the Devil, God consumed them, but they refused to take correction.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

God consumed them! Yet they live on??! What\u2019s that about? How does God consume them without them dying? That\u2019s grace, big time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And still, like all of us die-hard sinners, it does not matter that God\u2019s grace is so powerful for us, we have made our faces harder than rock; we have refused to turn back.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

So what does God do???<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More Grace,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and more Grace,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and yet more Grace!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

God works wonders by transferring Jesus\u2019 record of faithfulness to our record … just as if we were actually faithful in just a little and in a great big deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So what are we going to do with this?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are we going to do today?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No matter what we try to do, God will work through us, and the results are going to be wonderful and miraculous,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

.. so hang on to our hats.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
