It Don’t Come Easy…
It doesn't matter if you were
born into poverty or with a silver spoon in your mouth; that which you
desperately would have, somehow
evades you. It’s designed that way in
order for us to seek out God, in order
for us to possess it.
Some would like to think that
there is a system in place that is
designed to keep a person or a group down, but those who believe and trust in
the Lord know that “Good things take time”.
Peace isn't inherited, peace
isn't able to be purchased, peace cannot be smoked, injected, snorted, inhaled
or even created. Peace is a gift of God should
any man be able to boast, saying that it was given of or by them. And without God, peace will elude you.
If we would only chase after God as we do people, success and the money,
those things that we chase would chase us down and overtake us.
Why do we make seeking God hard,
as if he cannot be found? Nothing worth
having is found outside of the grace
of God. The lover you seek could be
sitting right next to you on a park bench but unless God reveals that to your
spirit, you will aimlessly go throughout this life chasing one bad relationship
after another. Or that business that you keep throwing good money after bad
will ever-be that one big break, that
one hand-shake away; and there you were standing in-line at the Starbucks behind
the financier who could have given you the financial loan, had you not been
rude to them when they bumped into you on their way out, but God could have
provoked you to hold the door for them as they struggled with several cups of
latte and cappuccinos. Only God drops
those invaluable nuggets that only those with discerning spirits can detect;
and not detect but act upon.
If you say that you trust God
– Trust God.
