RECONCILIATION

current thoughts:
the LORD sacrificed himself to reconcile the world to him.  He didn't die just for us Christians but for all humanity.  He died for everyone so there would be a door from our world to his and whoever chooses to open that door will find him.  But still it's our choice to make.  He provided a way for us to come to him.  For sin to lose it's power over us full knowing that we couldn't do this ourselves.  He's so far beyond us that there was no way we could meet his standards once we made that choice to follow our own wills.  Nothing we can do to earn it.  We will never reach our potential in this world because we need him to guide us.  He made us and he knows us better than we know ourselves.  But he has given us the option of unlimited time to become all that we can be.

When we decided we knew best in Eden we took that option away.  But God loved us so much he let it happen knowing one day he would sacrifice his son, himself.  So that we would have another choice to death.   So what's time on this planet all about.  Why not just skip it and make the choice now...if you choose to be boss of your life...there's a line to hell.  If you choose to let God be boss...there's a line to heaven.  Why spend thousands of years, and countless lives  who have/are struggling in this world, or enjoying this world only to make that decision a moment later??   Why not end it after Jesus was resurrected?

Creation isn't finished...God hasn't finished creating.

So what do we do with the 0-100 odd years we get on this planet?  I say enjoy it.  So when we go to eternity we don't waste a moment of it having to learn what we should have already learnt, having to grow up...or be sent to kindergarten cos we wasted our days on this planet saying God is boss but not living it.  Living lives of duplicity.  I WANT TO BE ALL THAT I AM MEANT TO BE FOR THIS MOMENT IN TIME.  Not wishing I was more or pretending I am more, or thinking I'm less and wasting time feeling sorry for myself and living in the past or fighting the present.  Whoever i am at this moment in time is worth celebrating.  Becos the LORD made today for me, for you, for us.

Let's enjoy it please.
