And here I thought it was an easy question, answered in the Bible.
Quote:
However, I can tell you what I feel in the Spirit. I think God has drawn you to Christ. Yet you've been hurt. You've been abused. You've been discouraged. You have unanswered questions. You've allowed these things to cause you to step back and even doubt the God who has called you. Yet, He hasn't let go of you. In fact, while your "kicking against the pricks" (as Paul did), God is still steering you like a farmer steers a stubborn oxen.
Why do I think this?
Because you are here. You still enjoy, on some level, conversation and fellowship with the saints of God. This is because in the core of your being... you are one of us. It may take some time for God to heal your hurt. It might take some surrendering to God to silence your questions. And, even if it's on your death bed, He'll bring you to the end of yourself and close the gap that separates you. All of this is part of God's plan for you. Don't despair. He is faithful and will complete the work He started in you.

resistance is futile!
