It's not a joke
Many are losing the little faith they had
Or even some conviction about who our saviour is and forever will be
The enemy is playing the mind games again
And no one is excluded from the battle !!
It's not a joke
Many "loyal" to the creed hardly know what its all about and the personal WHY of following it at all
So at the least provocative question, a doubt so large is created
A lifestyle is ruined and a pit of rubbish dug in the ever wandering mind
Alas, apostasy seems to be the inevitable most common end ?
It's not a joke
There are some contradictions in the bible
A lot of mysteries one can't unravel
And even though we know that only the author can reveal and solve our confusions
Many fall before getting to that phase of the deep understanding of the word
Because of:
Situations ....tear jerking hardships, Job like tales etc
People....men and women of God ?? Sisters or brothers ?? Spouses?? Children ?? Parents ??
Critical desperate choices to make....
And there goes the question:
To fight or to make peace with the ...
It's not a joke
The world has taken over in the minds of many
That they struggle with the word
Because they want it to match the world's demands
Because they want a limitless liberty
A liberty that not even them can define
It's not a joke
The book is not to be rewritten or modified or thrown away in frustration
No, it needs to be studied
Studied to be well approved
Studied to be truly understood again and again, for no one can testify to knowing this sacred book entirely.....(not even at the point of death)
Studied to prove ourselves before the rising team of "sleeping" ever logical humans
Studied to most importantly, be transformed by Him in this walk with Him.
It's not really a joke
The supposed " mighty " are falling
"We need evidences" they scream
Endless miracles seem to only cause even more doubts
"We need love not a judgemental saviour " they argue
Yet they have a definition of what's wrong or right
What could really be more judgemental than having to define what's good or what's bad ?
There !! Another dilemma...
Good and bad are beginning to have a different meaning
There seems to be a grey (lukewarm) area for every truth
It's not a joke
It's not even amusing
Who knows if we are even standing ??!!!
Understand where you stand
And stand firm by His grace and mercy
But before any other thing,
Ask and answer in all truthfulness,
In this battle of life
In this everyday war between good and bad
Where are you ?
