the world, and all who live in it;
I find myself having negative emotions to certain things, well most people have had a negative view on things like marriage, eating meat,wealth etc but then I'm reminded that all these things were made of God. Just because man has pervesed the things of God, God had made them for good but we've used them for bad.
I was listening to this one pastor speak and he was saying that there's only one way of doing things and that's Gods way (holy,pure and righteously). When we do things in another way, they may succeed for a short while but sooner or later they will fail. When we do things God's way, we may face trial and tribulation for a short while, but soon we succeed.
Psalm 37 (NIV)
2 for like the grass they will soon wither, like green plants they will soon die away.
3 Trust in the Lord and do good;dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
4 Take delight in the Lord,and he will give you the desires of your heart.
5 Commit your way to the Lord;trust in him and he will do this:
6 He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn, your vindication like the noonday sun.
When people use evil ways to get the things that God has created, the above Psalm says this will happen"2 for like the grass they will soon wither, like
green plants they will soon die away. "Many times we see this happening to people and we then think that it was Gods creation that caused this (wealth or marriage), but in actual fact it was the way in which they obta
ined what God has created.
There are some of Gods blessings which we have to trust for Gods appointed time to receive them, but while the above psalm says we trust God to receive them, we don't just sit around and do nothing and say we're trusting God but then we are to "3 .... do
There are some of Gods blessings which we have to trust for Gods appointed time to receive them, but while the above psalm says we trust God to receive them, we don't just sit around and do nothing and say we're trusting God but then we are to "3 .... do
good" We are to be doing something good while we trust God.
So never stop desiring good things just because you've seen someone fail or get divorced, what ever it maybe was created by God and we'll receive it and it will be ours for a long time if go about pursuing them in Gods way.
