God’s Word to You today is Romans 3:23-24
23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.
Well that about sums up my life. How about yours?
Really. I was lost. God found me in my lostness. He saved me. And He holds onto me even today.
Because of that I am thankful. Because of that I held onto my faith. Even though we walked in the valley of darkness, though we walked in the wilderness, yes even though we at times seemed to walk alone, I held onto my faith.
When the light didn’t show at the end of the tunnel, when confusion and destruction was all around, when dreams were crushed and the way seemed unclear, we held onto our faith.
You can’t do that without God being clear to you. You may imagine it and you may even convince yourself you are comfortable but until you have walked in the valley of darkness and known it, until you have seen the light and been lifted by it you don’t and you can’t know.
Until you know you are lost you can’t be found. But that is part of being lost. You don’t know it.
Here’s the kicker. We can’t lead them out of the darkness by telling them they are lost. The only way to let them know is to be the light. The only way to share the light is to have Him in your. And then it is His light shining thru you that will attract them and guide them away from the dark.
It isn’t about us. It is all about Him.
me n’ God love ya
