~ So What If It Costs...You Something?~
Life is seldom fair or just. As a matter of fact, the more righteous you are, the harder it gets. Being a person of nobleness, of character and strength, won't just cost you something, it's likely to cost you everything. Sadly, these days you won't find this kind of character. When the going gets rough, people quit. People of mediocre character to people of extreme Godly character. Truth being, people have small spines.
If it costs...they or you don't want to pay. You'll wrestle and fight it the whole way. Sedation and quietness is what people like. They don't like bees in their bonnets. Haven't we learned a thing? There is no control in life. Control is for unintelligent, non feeling people. Are you a feeling person? Is your life full of difficulties you can't see your way clear of? Do people say of you...they must be doing something wrong to have all those problem?
Wrong.
People whose life is filled with difficulty after difficulty are the people God has chosen to change this world. People who have a spine. People who, when it's all crashing in around them, still stand..but not in their own strength, but allow Christ to carry THEM.
Anything of good and true or right character will not only cost you something, but it could cost you everything you have. Are you up to the challenge? If you don't have Christ, I understand. But I am speaking to those who are born again Christians. You can't make it? Where is your faith brother or sister? Where and in whom? If you're trusting and leaning on your own understanding you're right...you're going to fall But if you are trusting and leaning on the Living God and Christ?
Come on. Has he ever let you fall yet?
Right........
Darn right it's gonna cost you something. But HE...will provide what it COSTS.
Lovingly ~
