The “I’m only human” Trap (CMP QUICKIE)

It’s been a long time. Sorry for the wait. Here’s a quick snack to chew on…

Try not to take too much comfort in the statement, “I’m a work in progress”. We all have that one thing or those things in our lives or in our character that can keep us from fully being pleasing to God. Take those things seriously.
We like to say, “I’m only human”; however, Jesus said His yoke is easy and His burden is light. His commands are not burdensome. This means He wouldn’t expect something from us that He didn’t think we couldn’t do. He also said no temptation is out of the ordinary for the common man… paraphrasing… What I’m saying is we can all come out of ANY sinful state and truly repent, that is, turn away and walk completely the OPPOSITE direction of your sin. You just…WE just have to TURN AROUND and WALK AWAY. It comes down to how bad you want it — MORE IMPORTANTLY, it comes down to how strong your faith is.
If we are truly to believe that our God is alive and loves us and watches over us and heaven is a REAL and TANGIBLE reward, you will successfully make the choice to eliminate that sin from your life and do it quickly. THAT is definitely a work in progress. Endeavor to keep building your FAITH. Faith drives EVERYTHING. But don’t rest on your, “God knows my heart” and “I’m only human”.
It’s only a matter of time before that simply becomes less of a challenge and more of an excuse to keep going on as you are, thus costing you eternal life.

Zealous? But for what?

http://bible.com/1/ROM10.1.KJV Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.

Do you know people like this? Perhaps this is you. Or me. Everybody has a cause or something they totally believe in. It drives them. It sometimes consumes them. But when it is not in harmony with God’s will, what becomes of such admired drive and commitment?

Paul the apostle was very much committed to persecuting the Christian people in the name of God! Was he focused? Yes? Zealous? Very? Did God approve? No. Jesus had to step in and redirect all that beautiful energy the right way. We may need that same redirection.

I know you are focused. You fight with a fervent desire unlike any other. Do it in knowledge. Do it in wisdom. Make it truly mean something. Read God’s word and find out His will for you.

Blessings,
