Im Sure!

Im Sure




After all I’ve been through in the past year I was thinking about the fact that if I had chosen not to write the blog or the book, would I still have my family together?  That being said I also asked myself, “Steve, are you sure your calling is real?”

If I had chosen not to write the blog or book, I do believe I wouldn’t be going through the things that I am now.  If I had chosen not to write this stuff, I believe my earthly life would be much easier.  You know, for someone who isn’t saved, this life is the only chance for any kind of happiness.  That’s why lost people make some of the decisions that they do.  They think that they have to cram all of the happiness they can in while they are alive.  And if you think about it, if they don’t come to know Jesus, then they are right in their thinking.  What’s sad though, are the people who choose to turn their back on God and live for themselves for happiness now, instead of living for God and investing in ETERNAL happiness.

Also, I had to ask myself if Im sure that I am being called by God.  I’m sure because of the guidance by the Holy Spirit.  I’m sure because I believe.  I’m sure because of the fact that you are reading this blog or book right now.  I’m sure because I’m at peace when I’m telling others about Jesus.  I’m sure because I’ve gotten more done for God than I ever did for myself.  I’m sure because I’m not a writer.  I’m sure because people who have no reason to, will ask me for spiritual advice.  I’m sure, because of the young man at church camp years ago who wanted me to tell him about Jesus.  I’m sure because of answered and unanswered prayers.  I’m sure I’m being called to some kind of ministry.  And I’m sure that Jesus is the Son of God and that He died on the cross for my sins, and then rose again.  The question is..............Are you sure that He also did all that for you?  I can tell you all day long that He did, but unless you know it for yourself it means nothing.

God has a plan for all of us.  After we are truly saved, our eternity is just beginning.  We have to look to God and ask for guidance.  I promise you Jesus didn’t die on the cross just so you can say a prayer and convince yourself that you are saved.  You have to understand that you are a sinner and God’s grace through Jesus is the only way to eternal peace.
