[center]Want It!

Why are we so afraid to live?
Why is life so difficult?
Why do things get dirty?
I love to take a hot bath when everything is in order.
When baseboards are dusty and windowsills are full of pollen, I cannot relax.
I try but there is a sense of unrest.
I love order but I never seem to have it.
What am I doing wrong?
I love life.
Why is there never time to stay ahead of the dirt?

Why does sin creep into our lives?
When we walk with God and sin comes in, we loose that inner peace that passes all understanding.
We immediately know it.
We stop and talk to God, asking forgiveness, so our inner peace will be restored.
Does someone with head knowledge of God understand why their peace is gone?
Did they really feel it?
We all know people who live in turmoil all the time.
Do they really know God?
Do they know where their true peace and joy comes from?
We know the answer and it makes us sad.

Oh, how I pray I could make the world feel what I feel.
The only way we can do this is to love one unlovely person at a time.
May Jesus’ love that I have in me rub off on them so they will want the love of Jesus.
Only Jesus can wash us white as snow.
Only Jesus was the perfect sacrifice.
Only Jesus died a gruesome death for the sin of the world.
The world is afraid of being in bondage if they love Jesus.
The world is on a collision course with Satan.
In the end to follow Satan you will be no more.
Every tear will be wiped away by Jesus as the lost are forgotten.
Only God’s children who know the peace, joy and love of God will remain.
Eternal Life!

Love the questioning and contemplation. Love the following line:

The world is afraid of being in bondage if they love Jesus.

If only their eyes were opened to that lie, because, really, we find true freedom when we surrender to Him.

It is sad how the world has been deceived. Without Jesus they have nothing.

Your line "Oh, how I pray I could make the world feel what I feel." is what I think all the time. If only we could bottle it like a perfume and give it to everyone to spray all over themselves! Bless You

Thank you. Faith is such a simple thing but yet the world makes it so complicated. Why are other countries seeing people healed immediately? They just believe and have faith because they have nothing else. So simple but yet so difficult for many.

This reminds me of 2 Corinthians 2:14-17

14 But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumphal procession in Christ and through us spreads everywhere the fragrance of the knowledge of him.
15 For we are to God the aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing.
16 To the one we are the smell of death; to the other, the fragrance of life. And who is equal to such a task?
17 Unlike so many, we do not peddle the word of God for profit. On the contrary, in Christ we speak before God with sincerity, like men sent from God.

Very thought provoking stimulating piece, we are dusting and vacuuming today and tomorrow and getting rid of the science projects growing in the fridge and mowing the weeds.
The good news is, the grapevine that withered and died last year is bearing fruit this year!
It was five dollars on clearance at walmart and we purchased the little fella' as an after thought, it looked so sad but made a dramatic comeback this year!
