Just wanted to say

I just wanted to say that I have been convicted of my attitude lately.  It has reflected especially in the last two posts.  I'm not saying that I necessarily disagree with what I said, but I was not close to God when I typed either of them and it shows I think.  I am very aware again that its is not just what you say or type for that matter but the way in which you do as well.  I have wasted enough time on these trivial matters that will not be present in heaven for sure.  I read a wonderful devotional the other day that has been hanging around in my heart.  The thing that stood out to me and has been very precious and encouraging when I think about is this: we never sin and it only be ours anymore.  Every time I sin it placed on the Lord Jesus, or rather was placed there before the foundation of the world.  Even before I was aware of His love for me this was true.  "For while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly." (Romans 5:6)

The argument that God would be just to send us to hell even if He had not sent His own Son to die for us has never been a consideration to God, since He had determined to have Jesus die for us before the foundation of the world.  Sin has always, when rightly seen cost God much more than us.  Without saying much more, I am sorry for anyone that has come possibly searching for life and found only a fading argument in the last two posts.  That is not to say that arguing is all bad, but I feel compelled to say that I know my attitude was wrong and I'm sure it came across.  There is a beautiful reality of a living Saviour that I would like to get back to.  He loves us all.  Do you know that?  I doubt it sometimes, but it remains true.  He loves us.  Ain't that awesome!  

"He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world." (1 John 2:2)
