God’s Word to You is 1 John 1:5-7
5 This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. 6 If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.
As a baby believer I once asked a pastor if I had to love even the people I don’t like. He asked me how God felt about them. Honestly I kinda would have rather had a different answer. Maybe you do too.
God doesn’t offer an easy answer on that. Yet this verse explains it. We aren’t meant to be good or do good things. That’s the trap of Satan and the world. We are supposed to follow Him, reflect Him and be the light.
We can’t do that while telling people what they should or shouldn’t do. We can’t do that by trying to control others. We can’t do that by thinking our agenda is more important than His.
We can’t fix racism. We can’t fix poverty. We can’t stop other religions. We can be His. His love, His light is and always was and always will be the answer. And folks, you definitely don’t want to hear this but, He’s enough. Or should be.
Stop being the world’s. Be His.
me n’ God love ya
