(Isaiah 1:18) "(GOD speaking) “Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool."
I was recently discussing this with someone, how it quickly became apparent to me that when I’d only been walking with Jesus for a few months, his goals and aims for my life would be in direct conflict with what I wanted.
I was living out the Scripture that the seeds of the Gospel had fallen on rocky ground!
The problem, though, was that because I knew, that I knew, that I KNEW that He’d revealed Himself to me in such a beautifully freeing way, I couldn’t just walk away and ignore Him!
I knew I’d been saved from the tyranny of my own dependencies! I knew I’d been set free from a myriad of mental, physical (and probably spiritual) problems that had dogged me all my life!
So how could I keep on walking after my old life and pretend that everything He’d done for me was just a trick of fate?
But – even though I’d been translated into the Kingdom of His dear Son, I didn’t want to agree with everything I saw as a ‘restriction!’ That was ‘until’ He spoke the above Scripture to me … “Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord."
Child of the Living God, if you’re in a huff with what's happening to you and around you right now, just drop the attitude, turn around, go sit with Him and argue this out! Talk to Him – He loves you enough to take your pain.
Let's pray together, "Lord, I know that you say that "All things that are happening to me right now are working together for my good, but it just doesn't feel like that to me. I'm hurting Lord and I could really do with more of You. Please send me 'Jesus with some skin on!'" Amen!
