I did something
today that I am not very proud of doing. I shot my mouth off when I
really didn't have to say a thing. The problem is what I said it is
not very Christian like. I said that I am getting to the point of
hating these people. I was talking about a certain group of people.
There was a lot going on, and it was happening really fast when I
said it.
This sweet
Christian woman said to me, “ Don't you mean that you hate the way
that they act sometimes?” This was my out if I had chosen to take
it. I guess by now that you know that I didn't. However, I did chose
to bury myself a little deeper. I said that I meant what I said, and
I used to hate the way that they acted. It is getting to the point
now that I hate them. She left it alone, and I can see why.
Now, I know that I
have hate in my heart, because that is what it say's in Luke 6:45.
From the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. How did I let these
folks get that under my skin to be hating them? I think that she was
right when she said that I hate what they do. I was the one that took
it to another level though.
I know that I am
at the point where I am chomping at the bits to get into my place to
live. I haven't moved on the list for the last three weeks either. I
have put this in God's hands. Not only now is there hate in my heart,
I am also failing in my trust of Father to know the right timing. I
know that I don't know better than He does. I think I am about to
fall apart!!
I am a man that
makes a lot of mistakes. I use the word mistakes instead of calling
it what it really is, and that is sin. I would really like to be sin
free, but that is not going to happen. I guess that I am freaking out
over the hate issue, because of one reason. I used to have a lot of
hate in my heart, and I know the devastation that it causes. Father
can not bless a man with issues of hate binding his heart up.
I had to work very
hard on getting the hate out of my life, my thought, and out of my
heart. I really was thinking that this was all cleared up, but I know
now that some has crept back in. All I need to do now is repent of
the words that I chose to use, and ask the Lord to search my heart,
and expose anything that He finds that is not of Him. Then we can
deal with what the He finds together.
There is no sense
in continuing to wallow in sin once it has been exposed. It is
totally nasty to leave unresolved sin in our lives. It just slams the
breaks on the growth that we are experiencing. Once we know of a sin
problem it is up to us to deal with the issue. We don't never have to
feel the need to be over-whelmed with it, because it is pointless to
try to tackle the issue alone. That is what Jesus lives for. He is
the one that we should run right to with our issues and problems.
Once we that these
problems to the foot of the cross, we can walk away as free, and
clean as we ever was to begin with. Now, we can have fellowship with
Father, and now He can continue to bless us in the way that He
desires to bless us. Father is good!! He don't want us to be defeated
by anything, or any situation. He wants us to walk around with our
heads held up. We are the ambassador’s of Jesus Christ, and, we are
no good if we are walking around defeated!!
The victory is
ours!! We are to be living victorious Christian lives, on every
level, everyday of our lives here on this earth. I personally know
how hard that can be to pull off, day in, and day out. I know all to
well, what it means to walk around defeated, on all levels. I am here
to testify today that life is really worth the living when a person
has the right motivation. I have tried all things, and if not, most
things to satisfy this hole in the middle of my being. They left me
with a breeze still blowing through me.
One thing, and
only one thing was a perfect fit. Once I put Jesus Christ in that
hole He was a perfect fit!! That breeze stopped blowing, and my mind
starting to calm down. My life is so much better, and that minor
problem that I had with hate. It is nothing now. I just have one more
thing to do now, and I will be totally free once again.
…...........Much Love
