Saving the world
Posted by Donnie Crawford on Friday, June 22, 2012 Under: my prayer
FATHER, thank you for enlightening me about the truth on saving the world. I have felt in my heart that I should try to do all I could to save people from their problems. After a short time of trying I would always find myself at my wits end. Then seeing that all I did was for nothing, just topped it all off. You showed me that it was a problem of the heart Mark 6:52 -
For they considered not the miracle of the loaves: for their heart was hardened. that people are hurting in their hearts and that until they deal with that pain then they will do anything to not have to face the pain, and that by using anything and everything to numb the pain is causing their hearts to harden toward YOU. For YOU are allowing them to have the problems that they are having in order to bring them to the point that they have no choice but to turn to you. Philippians 2:10-11. Me standing in YOUR way was all I was doing by following my own heart, for it is by the heart that we are easily deceived. We so easily go with the way we feel about things when the truth is we should go by the truth that we know to be true in our minds. Romans 12:1-2. Father, once my eyes became opened and I was able to see the truth. That by following my heart and what I felt to be right was hardening my heart instead, I give YOU the praise for allowing me to receive the truth and turn from my way to YOUR way. Each day I renew my mind with YOUR WORD my heart becomes less hardened, and the fullness of YOUR GRACE continues to grow within me. Now my desire is to take JESUS to all the people and allow HIM to fill their void and do away with their pain. For my only job is to preach and teach the gospel to all the earth. Mark 16:15 and Matthew 28:19. letting them know that I am no different than they are and that I had the same pain they do, and that the pain is now gone forever and the LORD JESUS CHRIST took it all away. Thank you, FATHER. I give YOU all the GLORY for YOU are so worthy! AMEN! and AMEN!
