IN A RUT? OVER AND OVER AGAIN......

 

 Can you relate?? Is that expression on your face lately?

In the old testament, over and over, God allowed calamity in one form or another to overrun the nation of Israel when they were lost in their sin and the vast majority of its people suffered because of it. But, after they turned from their KNOWN sin and cried out to The Lord, He restored them better than before. In case you are wondering, this cycle happened 44 times in God's Word.

Is this not the same with you and me? We unfortunately go through the cycle over and over depending on how much the old self we attempt to hang on to.....

We are considered, individually, in a spiritual sense, as the nation of Israel, as God's chosen people. Does he not allow circumstances to kill off the old us, the rebellious us, that part of our past life where we lived for the flesh? Or maybe we have been duped into trying a new type of disobedience. And once we are done with that, he restores to us a closer version of the Fellowship that mankind had before the fall. Our faith and love for him grows stronger than before....

Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from The Lord.   Acts 3:19 NIV

Are you tired of life as you know it? Do you need to finally get off the unfulfilling merry-go-round that is your life? This is God's guaranteed method to accomplish this very thing...you have his Word.

Thomas Jefferson said it oh so clearly; "If you want something you've never had, you must be willing to do what you have never done".
