Anything that happens in your life, whether it is good or bad, that sets you on the right path, should be considered a blessing. The desire and intent of Almighty God, His endless love and mercy, are to bring you to a place of eternal joy and blessing. He wants to save you, to make you part of His eternal family, but He will not take you where you do not choose to go or force you to accept what you do not want to believe. His way is always righteous, just and holy. In His immeasurable love, He has made a place for the down-trodden, the hopeless and the weary, but He cannot accept those who are rebellious and unwilling to repent. When you were lost and condemned, He sacrificed Himself to give you a reprieve. By His sacrifice, He has given you a way unto the Father; He has given His all so that you can experience true joy and blessings that were denied you while you were in your sin. Everything has a price and Christ was the only One wealthy enough to pay the price to redeem you of your sins. Because of Him you have been given a chance to live, to have those things from Heavenly places. Don’t give up that right or refuse to accept that true blessing that only He can give. While He is working on your heart, ask Him to forgive you of your sins and become your eternal friend and Savior. GLH
