What do we do when we hit rock bottom? When life seems to destroy us what do we do? We cry out to God. We wait to call on him until we are at the very bottom, the lowest point in our lives. Why do we wait until we are so desperate that we just have to cry out as a last resort. Why don't we cry out when life is good? Why do we cry out when we first start to get in trouble. Why do we call on God as a last resort? We have abandoned God and in the process the willingness to do the right thing before God. We have given up on loving God and honoring him. We do not realize that the consequences of disobeying God are not just limited to us. When we disobey God we affect everyone around us, our friends, our families, our collegues, and our leaders. We hurt ourselves and those we love.
We are wimps. We are losers. We are so scared to stand up for our faith, yet we are afraid to talk to that stranger sitting beside us because they may think we are weird. Well, Christ died for them, Paul was persecuted for them, Stephen was stoned for them, Missionaries die for them. Yet, we don't talk becuase they might think we are weird. Where did we go wrong?
We went wrong when we took Chist out of our every moment life. We schedule him into our Sundays and some even on Wednesday. We call ourselves good little Chistians because we went to church and checked it off of our to do list. But why is he not allowed at school with us? why is he not allowed at work, or with our friends, or our families? why do we put him in a box on the shelf? When did we go from GOD OF THE UNIVERSE WHO CREATED EVERYTHING AND IS IN EVERYTHING to God, that guy we pray to when we need something and sometimes visit on sundays.
where did we go wrong?
