nothing is ever as it seems. How something can be perfect one day and then within hours fall apart till there is nothing left of it. All of it lies in how we deal with things and situations that God puts before us. I learned today that our worst enemy isn't the devil, we give him too much credit. Our worst enemy is ourselves. We don't let God win in some situations because we are lazy, because we don't have the drive, because we feel that there is something else we should do. Most of that isn't at the devil's fault, its what we've been taught in a society that tells us that it is all for us, its all about "me." The worst thing about hearing that is the fact that its true. So many people have too much pride to admit it, but that in itself is you getting in the way of God. Almost every christian is living the lukewarm life. Revelations 3 says to either be hot or cold, for God will spit you out if you are lukewarm. too many people are lukewarm, they're not fully for God, but they're also not fully not for God. thats the worst thing though, thats what He hates most. That is me. That is my boyfriend, and that is also most of my friends. Being a christian is hard. So hard, that we get turned off by making sacrifices and ignoring urges. Which leads us further down. We stop making sacrifices, we take hold of the urges, and then its harder to crawl out of the hole.
The worst part of that hole, is when the people you love are in it with you, and they refuse to get out.
When they continue to dig it deeper, making it harder for you to get out.
When they reject the rope that God throws down to help.
When you know that grabbing the rope and getting yourself out, leaving them behind is the worst thing you could do.
