“Honest to God…”

Originally written one year ago

“If you will diligently listen to the voice of the Lord your God, and do that which is right in his eyes, and give ear to his commandments and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you that I put on the Egyptians, for I am the Lord, your healer.” Exodus 15:26

“Because he holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name. When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him and honor him.” Psalm 91:14-15

I just want to say I am honestly grieved and conflicted by something I am desperately trying to understand. Being 100% honest and authentic, I see a great need for faith to rise up once again in the Body-of-christ like it did in the old revivals. I see what I believe James would call “double minded”, though not everywhere. All I know is that we are not of this world, not to live like the world, not to react like the world and not to put our trust in the world. I also know we are different than the world. We are the CHURCH, THE CHILDREN OF OUR FATHER. Is He not able to care for His own….those who “will trust Him completely”? Maybe I see it differently because I don’t know how to not live in complete dependence upon him every moment of everyday, for every thing. The only time or place I ever feel safe is in my Father’s care. So that’s where I’ll be. Join me would you?
