Have a lot of talents but never was a champion of anything other than telling people about Christ. You matter and that is an uncommon message in this world that is brutal on the vulnerable. Those who have been representing the King have been given poor instruction and purpose definition. Loving people doesn’t have an agenda, nor does it follow the paradigm of Church campaign. If our power is the Love of God then why do we abandon all authority replaced with good or business based intention choosing analytics of Sovereign equipping?
People so often tell me that they lost their faith in God because the world is the world and it never stops being a pattern of human disappointment. I don’t fault them in their despair. However, to blame God for man’s continued failure at being Humane or the circumstances not advancing to meet our expectations is perhaps a bit myopic or self defined. That actually is the point of God’s intervention, because Men never could fix this problem that they created. God’s intervention is all about Trusting Him over human capacity to make this right.
That is why God’s Grace is an “offering” to those who want and choose His intervention of Hope. Men will try “real” hard to master this world. That is the deception so easily used to capitalize in our desperate defeat, having been caught up in the lie of self justification. If I never could achieve then smashing my forehead against the same piece of granite in perpetuity is going to produce the same self injury. Water shows us the path to mastery is the instant choice of the path of least resistance. Surrender to God in acceptance of the offer of Grace is that logical conclusion.
Why, do men continue to choose the path of greatest resistance? Well that answer will win you every book deal and prize that men can muster, but few will inevitably choose that answer for it requires “Surrender” which to most of us is the death of self-actualization. Ironically, that is the mysterious answer to the damage of this world, the feeling of inadequacy and the nonsensical pursuit of impossible tasking. Surrender is the answer as well as the things all men fear collectively. That is why the key is humility before God’s Sovereignty. We cannot find Grace without supplication before God’s Throne.
Why then would men continue on this unpleasing road of self reliance? That is the deception and the power over men’s mind. If you wish to see the Hive Men of humanity it is not found in enlightenment but in the caustic dependence upon the premise that we ever had the power to overcome our frailty. Salvation is a thing of God. Therefore, identity is a thing of God as well. If I am determined to get there myself then I never could get there from the outset. Salvation begins with acknowledgement of this ideal. That’s what God’s Word tells us throughout the Old and New Testaments. We created a debt we could not pay and plateau we could not reach. Only He gave us the way to a new paradigm of life everlasting. The Only Way is found in Jesus.
