I wonder what it would be like to be in God’s shoes when it comes time to judge this world. If one accepts that God desperately and passionately wants each person to be reunited with Him, then the process is going to be extremely depressing and difficult. I cannot imagine God forcing someone to come home to Him who does not want to be there. Going through each life, looking for any indication of a “yes” yet not finding one, forces even the Divine’s hand. How does one shut the door on a person who was so precious that you gave up part of yourself to death, yet has chosen to go another path? Is there anyway to prevent this event?
I believe the latter question consumes much of God’s time. He is looking to give you and me an experience with the Divine, to let us know first hand just what we were created to be. He understands just what is at risk and this drives him even harder to reach out, nurture, and share who and what He is.
I direct change at work. In a small way, I can see the future of what we need to be doing, look like, and deliver in the coming years. I am optimistic of what work will be like in this scenario and I believe it will be a good place for others to work. Yet, my message has not gotten through to everyone.
Greed and the god of self are alive and kicking in every city and in every heart. It is clear that “indolence wants it all and gets nothing; the energetic have something to show for their lives.” (Proverbs 13.4)
How does one convey to another what life could be like? Is there an antidote for greed? Do we believe that we will win regardless of our choice?
I want ever person I work with to see the vision, yet some will choose another path. God offers an amazing gift of restoration and recreation. The choice is yours and mine; life and death.
