GODS CHOICE

Another blog that was in my head when I woke up this morning...

There was GOD showing me, how it is for HIM...

At first I thought it should be 'GOD Is Like' as a title... but its more than that... so much more! So I had to come in here and write what I saw...

It 'is' about what GOD is 'like', but it really has more to do with our personal CHOICES...

I know its crazy but I gotta write what I see...

                             *************************************

GOD is like when your making a pot of beans... before you start, you must clean and separate the beans... and take out any clumps of dirt or any bad beans or rocks before you cook them...

GOD is like, when your working a restaurant and your setting out the glasses and plates and you find one that is chipped... you don't present a chipped glass or plate to a customer...

GOD is like when you work at a hotel and you find a sheet or a towel stained in blood... you don't just fold it and put it back out for public use...

GOD is like when your going through the mail, you toss out the things that do not interest you!

GOD is like when you go to mop the floor, before you can do a good job you need to pick up all the toys or towels or trash that is on the floor...

GOD is like when your getting ready for bed... you take off your glasses, jewelry, makeup...

GOD is like when your getting ready for a speech, you go over the ideas and you take out what is irrelevant.

GOD is like replacing windows... you always remove the broken ones!

GOD is like when you go to answer the door... you want to make sure you check yourself for eye and nose boogers or food on your face...

HAHAHA... so gross... but so true...

GOD is like when your eating an egg or raw peanuts or clams... first you take off the shell!

GOD is like before you mow your grass, you must go over it and pick up... branches, dog toys or dog piles... or kid toys... or move the water hose... etc...

GOD sees fit for when HE is checking over HIS PEEPS... HE raises up the godly with the ungodly and when its time to call HIS people home, HE removes the parts that are not perfectly Godly.

GOD has always done it this way.

You could have 2 people side by side in a catastrophe and one person will die and one will live... its all a matter of their personal perspective... someones death can either be a good or bad thing.

You see, GOD has a system of things and ways that HE has done since the beginning of time, well... since before time even was! You know? Before men created things to help us keep track of time and be in sinc with each other for work or vacations... or what have you.

And we can never totally know GODS full intentions... because we can never really know a person on the inside... you think you know someone well, but then one day they do something that makes you say... "WHAT? I never would of thought"... "they were such nice people!"  Oh Lord I have seen and heard that over and over... we never suspect the reality that is fixing to slap us in the face.

I know.. I am like you... I get hard and want to go live in the side of a mountain... but then I remember, we should never give up on them... we should always believe that GOD is trying our spirits... testing us to see what we will do.

Because you know its all about personal choice.

And when men become secretive to hide their sin, sometimes they are perfect actors and can actually pull it off...  why?  I suppose we are to trusting... or we trust the wrong people.

You follow? Sorta like a glutton goes off and hides to eat and does most of their binge eating in secret... they know they are wrong... they know.. we know about portion control... but when we want it... wow... do we ever want it! We do know that gluttony is a sin... well, maybe not all of us... maybe this is the first time you heard that over eating is a sin.  But we know, you should never take in more than you need, it's sort of wasteful... and it packs on unhealthy pounds.

Now we know that gluttony is unhealthy for us and so the young people of today are brought up with this knowledge and it will be normal and easy for them to choose healthy, because they know the truth of the matter. So you see using gluttony as an example, you can think the theory through all the other sins. Its always something that we do that is not good for us... even if we sometimes think it is good because it tastes good or feels good, that is one big fat lie you be feeding yourself, there!

Part of sin is recognizing it as something bad. And the thing is... GOD has been trying to tell us that some things in this world are not good... will lead to a life of ruin.  GOD doesn't want that for us!

GOD wants to help us along the road of life, help us struggle with our sins until we get it right! Because choosing for ourselves to stop a sin, really makes GOD very HAPPY that we chose for ourselves to follow the right path!

Praise GOD, most people can see their sin and they work on overcoming the sin daily until we are practically perfect people... you know, we strive to be like Jesus!

You know... its in our own selves to predict our fate and our legacy.

And we only have one crack at this thing called LIFE... and if we are smart we will follow the tried and true ways that have been known and laid down for us to follow in order to have a great life! Show me someone who is miserable and I will show you someone lost in their sin, or the sin of their parents or kids... it all revolves around sin that is in and around us.

My next thought is going to Genesis... but I am going to save Genesis... it is to much for a paragraph... maybe even to much for a blog. I think I will start on it as another book!

Anyways...

What I am getting at is... in this wonderful world that we are blessed to be alive in... we can have a really good life filled with LOVE and laughter with our family and friends... or we can have a life full of danger and disaster with our enemies and strangers...

Not knowing our end is nearer than we think...

Yeah, those signs that you see... those old folks holding signs saying 'the end is near'! Well, it is near for them... but not for all of us! We are constantly evolving as a people... some come into the world as others go out... it's natural to live and die... what matters is what YOU CHOOSE for you, while you are here...

I know that some people don't have a choice in life about things... but GOD always gives us a personal choice... and then in the end, you always get your just due... one way or the other!

Isn't it better to live your life with LOVE leading and guiding you?

People make such a mistake when they follow 'hate' and 'violence'...

When I see on the news people rioting because they are mad... all I can think is... (since I have read the Bible)... 'Why? Don't they know that GOD tells us not to act like that?'

The Bible is full of info about how we should live...

But start reading the New Testament of Jesus in Matthew... cause its Jesus who holds the keys to heaven... which a lot of us have already found! When I look across America... across the world even... I can see the LOVE of the PEOPLE! It is so beautiful it makes me want to cry tears of joy knowing with all the evil in the world, there is still so much good!

LOOK! SEE! Pay attention and KNOW the truth!

Evil people want to hide the truth of their evil...

Doesn't mean all is hopeless... we just must educate them to the truth...

We take away the evil when we choose to emulate GOOD.

GOD is GREAT...

GOD is GOOD...

GOD is LOVE...

For you and you and you and YOU!

GOD bless us... everyone!
