Jeremiah 22:21 NIV
I warned you when you felt secure, but you said, ‘I will not listen!’ This has been your way from your youth; you have not obeyed me.
So clearly he gives us instructions in the bible that we are to follow and of course I would never say from my mouth I will not listen. That would be ridiculous, but what do my actions say?
Well somtimes they say I'm not obeying. seeing how serious the consequences are why would I ever disobey? To be honest it must show I have some lack of faith that the word is true. Would I disobey if I knew it would killl me?
Just self reflection today

I think what you wrote is exactly correct. But, in our own minds it isn't as black and white as it looks when you write it out.....even though it really is. I think we get tangled in our own will and our own desires for situations. That's where we get lost. In our own little minds, it isn't really disobeying God....it's more obeying myself, and I can fit God into my plan. Not the other way around.
ReplyDeleteBut, again....you are spot on.
