forgive us, we have done worse, but the demons cannot take away
from us that we are children of the Most High. We are able to cry
Á-°Abba FatherÁ-?, only if we are struggling to live in Christ. God
lives within us. He enlightens us, He helps us, even though we are
sinners. So, if He has come to us and has offered us FREELY His
grace and mercy, who are we, in our pride and arrogance to say
Á-°that is not enough mercy or enough grace. I canÁ-?t changeÁ-?? Every
man can change. Everyone can change magnificently if he only
allows God to change him, but this takes time, a lot of time. I am
sure, you are like me, and are very tired of your sins. They weigh
us down, they are like an anchor, and they cut and they hurt. And
yet, in some weird and perverted way, they are dear to us. They
must be dear to us in some way, but God understands, and will
help us if we make an effort, and if we are patient.
None of us right now are the wayside because we are at least
trying to be Christians. Some of us may be the rock, some may be
thorns. God knows, and this will be all revealed in the end. Even if
you have very little soil right now, and even if you are choked
with thorns and cares, God will help you to become good soil. He
will help any man to become good soil. He is no respecter of
persons. Any man that desires will be given, freely, GodÁ-?s mercy.
So take GodÁ-?s mercy and clasp it to your hearts. Hold in to it and
cultivate it, and be good soil, and God will save you.
Amen.
