Bloons, a Wonderful Game.

I play the game Bloons 4.  I’ve been playing it for over a year now.  How slow am I to have just figured something out.  It’s ok to loose a few of my 200 lives if I set up certain elements first.

The Christian life is similar.  The target is holiness before the Lord.  But when we first come to Him, we find Him working on things we didn’t expect.  He begins the work within us in curious places.  And to our perception, we think something’s amiss.  We need His wisdom to hold on while He works that marvelous salvation He promises.

I encourage all who are struggling in their faith to hold on.  What you perceive as important may not be the focus of God at the time.  Just hold on!

The Conspiracy of God.

Men who do not know or love God will think that God the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit are in a conspiracy to destroy them.  They perceive that there is a war between God and man.  This perception comes from observing the wickedness in the world and the corrupt nature of death and decay.

They are wrong.  Indeed, there is a conspiracy from the Holy Trinity.  But it is not against man.  It is against sin.  The beautiful thing is, man is invited to join God in this war.  You can make your mark on the book of life by accepting the leadership of Jesus, the Son of God.  He will count you as one of His own.  He will dress you in fine clothes fit for battle.  And He will endow you with the weapon of The Holy Spirit.

Again I say, this battle is not a conspiracy against man.  It is a battle against sin.  If you want to die, just keep what you already have.  If you want to live, approach the Lord of Life in the name of Jesus.

By His Grace.
