A key question to ask is, “Do I really want to see my life changed or simply made comfortable?” I’m not sure how it is in the rest of the world, but the entitlement idea – someone owes me something – has crept into the American church.
The truth is that God owes me nothing. I owe Him everything. The truth is that others can’t solve my problems for me. I have to take responsibility for my own reactions to life’s situations.
I have to take responsibility for what’s already in my head, no matter who put it there. I have to take responsibility for what’s trying to get into my head as well; because the truth is, we are who we are today because of what was put into our brains yesterday.
What are you going to do about it? Whine about how it’s not your fault? Does it matter? It’s still there. It’s time to take responsibility for the life Christ has given you. There is forgiveness when we repent, but our choices today still affect our tomorrow. We can either own up to our Christ-given ability to choose to listen to and follow Jesus or we can choose to let someone else control us.
Who would you rather have control your life? It is indeed your choice and your responsibility. Choose wisely my friend; your peace today and joy tomorrow depend upon the choice you make.
