Subject: Food for thought. |
Bible Note: Well put brother.I heard somone say a number of years ago that if Jesus wasnt Lord of our lives then in all likelyhood he wasnt savior either.At first I found this quite disconcerting.But as I began to look at my life I had to admit that I wasnt saved.I was perfectly willing to have Jesus as my savior,but that was as far as it went.I came to realise that all I had done was to make God a convenience in my life.At that time God was a justication for me to continue in the things that had ruined my life. It took me 43 years to figure out that Jesus salvation and his Lordship go hand in hand and that I couldnt have one without the other. Makes a whole lot more sense today. In Christ, lionheart |
