Who? Me?

It can be a lonely place when one is falsely accused. I must fight against the bitterness and the weariness that can try and creep in when faced with this reality. Some of the weapons in my arsenal include the truth that: God knows. Others might not but God in his infinite wisdom knows me, and he knows the truth better than anyone else; even myself. I must take refuge in him as man will fail me again and again. Others may not be interested in the truth but God loves the truth.

“As for you, brothers, do not grow weary in doing good.”

‭‭2 Thessalonians‬ ‭3:13‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.”

‭‭Colossians‬ ‭3:17‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“For I will satisfy the weary soul, and every languishing soul I will replenish.””

‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭31:25‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted.”

‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭12:3‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.”

‭‭Galatians‬ ‭6:9-10‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Test All Things

Realising more and more how important it is to seek God for myself. To dig deep and learn from God’s word by myself. Nobody has a special access to God. The only One that does is Christ Jesus, and by his finished work on the cross I can have access to him. Don’t let anyone else make you feel they have some kind access to God that you don’t, outside of Christ. They are lying to you. There is no special revelation beyond what is already written. The cannon is closed. Anything you hear, test test test.

There’s a lot of sweet nothings out there parading as “of God”. Seemingly grand revelations that when you try to get to the bottom of have no depth. God has given us all that we need in scripture. As we diligently dig in, his Holy Spirit will teach and guide us. It’s a promise from God himself. Don’t get distracted. The Christian faith is simple. Not easy. Simple.
