WORDS OF HOPE

Would a judge hang out with a criminal? Would a pastor hang out with a sinner? Would anyone publicly hang out with an outcast? Certainly not! In the time of Jesus Christ, the pharisees publicly judged law breakers and they refused to associate with them. Jesus Christ never shamed any sinner, he welcomed  and helped them.  People are bound to judge you when they find out about the secrets you hold but God knows them already and still wants you. If you run to him, he promises to make you better.

Who teaches a baby how and when to talk? Who tells a baby when to walk? Who teaches a baby how to live? Babies just do baby stuffs. They learn how to crawl and then try standing; before you realise it you are chasing them around. Everything happens in it's due time, when your maker's time is right; he would give you what you deserve. Just trust the process and don't rush. 

Have you seen a mustard seed before? It's one of the smallest seed you can ever find but when it grows; it becomes one of the biggest trees. Serving as a home to many animals. So the bible talks about having faith as a mustard seed and being able to move mountains as a result. How big is a drug? How many do you need to take to get well? But to be able to move a mountain, you only need a mustard seed faith. If the smallest seed can become the biggest tree then your faith can lead to greater miracles. Have faith.

So you believe that people live in a ball -like thing called a globe. You believe that we live in a globe which orbits around a sun? You believe that some  forces keep the globe from falling down. You believe that humans are descendants of apes. You literally believe in everything scientists have told you and yet you don't believe in God! Well I'm not going to tell you to, but it's better to be a believer and die and find out that God doesn't exist than not be a believer and die and find out that God exists.  The regret of your current actions won't change your fate when you die.

When it comes to power, there's a hierarchy. Everyone wields power; power over ourselves and over others. A President has power over his people but before he is voted into power; these same people have the power to decide. Pastors may be powerful but it's a hierarchy. The pastor who might help you might not be able to help me. What would cause one pastor to stumble, would only strengthen another. That person that you need help from also needs somebody's help. It's quite obvious that absolute power only belongs to God.

 Everything has a price. Some crimes are paid off with a price but nobody cares if you can pay it or not. When you break the law and you are suppose to make payment, nobody would ask if you have enough money. When you visit a priest and he ask for money as a payment for his help; does he ask how much you can offer? Certainly not. Nobody cares enough to ask about what you are capable of but God cares enough not to allow you be tempted beyond your strength. Jesus Christ has already paid the price so God doesn't require of it. 

No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your strength, but with the temptation will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.  1 Corinthians 10:13
