Just One

Judges 6:1-32
I told you, “I am the Lord your God. You must not worship the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you now live.” But you have not listened to Me

We may have accepted Christ as our Savior. But that does not mean that we have invested everything in Him. Chances are we may have faith, but we have a contingency plan. And this is the surest way to spiritual death.

Why? Because we should trust in God alone. Do you have relatives who often go to church and bet their wealth in the lotto? Do you, yourself, say that you trust God but then make plans in case His doesn't work out? I was guilty of charge. I always thought I could get away with going to church and believing in God while I live the life of my supposed freedom.

But sometimes, we are deceived of our own definitions. Freedom is submission. Submission to the truth that is God. Let us learn to trust Him. And not make back-up plans.

Prayer:
Lord, I apologize for the times I doubt your plans for me. I am scared, really. Even right now while I'm writing this. It took a lot to leave my comfort zone and I think I am still spending energy from it. I pray that you continue to make me understand and break my heart everyday. I pray for the people I left there too. That they may find whatever it is that you want them to find. Thank you. I love you. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
