If the world gets cold, then why don’t I build a fire?

I don’t know where I belong.

Christ has atoned for the sin of all men, everywhere, for all of time by dying in a single moment. His death, although remembered by our laws of time, has made His will and His promises available to us in ways not affected or influenced by time. Although He died in a single moment of our time, God used His perfect sacrifice to cleanse every moment that will ever occur in the lives of Evert being on this earth.

Our God is an awesome God.

God’s grace is right there.

Taste and See

Hebrews 6:4-6 “For in the case of those who have once been enlightened and have tasted the heavenly gift and have been made par takers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, and then have fallen away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance, since they again crucify to themselves the Son of God and put Him to open shame.”
I speak to you: those who have experienced God, those who have been moved by His love, those who have tasted the perfection of His goodness… I speak to you: the ones who have experienced the GLORY God ha for you and the fulfillment He has placed in your hearts;
Why do you settle for anything less? YOU KNOW!
You KNOW His goodness an His love and joy. You KNOW that what He has to offer goes beyond any satisfaction this world can provide.
You know.
You’ve tasted an seen that The Lord is good and yet you walk away from encounters with Christ, straight into the clutches of sexual relationships.

You take up society’s definition of love more eagerly than you would take up your own cross.

You have tasted eternity in God’s arms and yet you set that down and say, “Maybe later, God.” And you pick up fleeting beauty and the unfulfilling brokenness this world has to offer and you say that your life feels empty and you don’t know where God went.

“For the ground that drinks the rain which often falls on it an brings forth vegetation useful to those for whose sake it is also tilled, receives a blessing from God; but if it yields thorns and thistles, it is worthless and close to being cursed, and it ends up being burned.”
—Hebrews 6:7-8

My hope is anchored to Christ.

Death cannot touch me when I’m in the arms of Christ.

God is greater than any insecurity, any shortcoming, any doubt, and any sin that exists in our lives.
He is so much greater and stronger than anything we will face.
Do not be afraid.
He is with us.

Do not let the deceitfulness of sin harden your heart toward the living God.
