What I Know For Sure... Realizing the truth that we are all susceptible to temptations and therefore our spiritual stance if we are real Christians has more weight than the unbelief... Temptations come in different forms, in various degrees and no matter how strong your moral compass is; you'll fall into trap. Now, this is where your relationship with God comes in...Where does your faith stand as a believer, as a born-again Christian-- as a child of the most high God when temptations are spearheading you? Having accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Savior and Lord of my life ensues good conviction, responsibility, commitment, wisdom, patience, charity--all of which are precursors to obedience, surrendering earthly desires and unaligned dreams to His purpose for my life. Yes, it took the best of my Time, my Mind & my Heart to finally realized the Truth that even me as a Christian is very much vulnerable, susceptible & human to the devil's tactics & strategies. You see, the devil knows & plays with your weakness. Satan will use social media & flattery to your emotions. Once your enemy got an ounce of your soft spot, he will employ his strategies to seduce you where his stronghold is already within you. He has already strategically positioned your heart & mind engulfed into his deception. I, too, have been manipulated by my own flesh. I have not relentlessly and courageously applied 1 Peter 5:8 that says: Be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion walketh about whom he may devour." But...I serve a bigger God than my mistakes and wrong choices. This I know for sure. I wished I had used biblical boundaries appropriately to achieve the relationships and purposes that God has intended for me . Again, it's never too late to move forward and walk with God. There's no need for self condemnation and guilt trappings. God's grace abounds. I just have to really be more attuned to the Holy Spirit when He's prompting me and teaching me instead of ignoring and disconnecting the seed of God's word for my life. As always, you take care and God Bless... |
