A Daily Devotional About never turning back… Jeremiah 32:27 "I am the Lord, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me? (NIV) The road of our Christian faith is a long and difficult walk. There are voices behind us calling out to us to come back to unfaithfulness. There are voices behind us telling us give up because the walk of our faith is too difficult. These voices call out to us to tell us our life would be easier if we just forget about living our Christian life. There are voices behind us wanting us to turn back to living our old life of sin, darkness, and hopelessness. The voices behind us tell us there is no use in going forward because our unseen God has no power. The voices behind us tell us our unseen Jesus is just a myth. There are voices behind us telling us our unseen Holy Spirit is just a story and of no effect. What lies we hear coming from behind us! What a lie hear when hear how we serve a God of no power! What a God does not love us, care about us, or watch over us! What a lie our old life of sin (with all its pain, darkness, and loneliness) was somehow better! We must not fall to the slings and arrows of the voices behind us who try to persecute us. We must know full well the consequences for them and for us. For them, for those who reject God, Christ, and the Holy Spirit, there is a fire waiting. For us, if we do not turn back, Christ's eternal joy and happiness awaits. To achieve our Christian goal we must not turn back. We must listen only to the kind and gentle voice of our Shepherd who leads us home. |
