And Here We Are

Part of what took me so long to do this is I feared no one would want to hear from little ole me.  I'm not Creflo Dollar, or Billy Graham, or any of the other famous evangelical ministers.  I'm not even a licensed minister.  There was an answer for that too.  Jesus was not a Pharesee or any other officer of the temple.  He was scorned for quoting scripture by those of the temple.  

I remember feeling so agitated as one licensed minister started a Facebook page.  He kept pushing his license in everyone's face.  Than God reminded me, "“Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!”
Matthew 18:7 KJV.  This person was flashing his license because he was offended and needed to prove himself.  God says our proof is in our deeds.  I was afraid I would offend if I used the knowledge God laid on my mind and in my heart.

At this point I realize if I keep using excuses to stop sharing, I am not following the path that Jesus has laid at my feet. “Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee. Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established. Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.” Proverbs 4:24- 26 KJV.  Jesus made me realize that every time I made and excuse, I was looking away and allowing doubt into my heart.  
Keep your feet on the path set for you.  Jesus will always guide your step as long as you keep listening.  His words are simple.  His direction easy.  We are the ones who make it difficult.  Have a blessed day.
