Ecclesiastes 7: 20
The
Bible is filled with verses that encourage and even give people a shot in the
arm—the good kind of shot.
I
guess I’m just driven to look for the deep hidden truth in God’s Word, and this
is a verse we sometimes miss.
I know
deep down inside, that I’m probably a better guy than most.
I
think if I even looked for my wife’s opinion of me, she’d probably concur that
I’m a pretty OK guy.
The
problem with that theory, is that my wife isn’t going to judge me at the end of
my life.
God is
the One I have to give an account to.
I
believe there are many people today, that would confess a Christian
heritage.
Most
of them would probably even say, they shouldn’t be classified as a
sinner.
A.W.
Tozier once said….
“Most people don’t want to hear this, but we are
not a part of a nice, neat order of creation...we are constantly in rebellion
towards God, and that seems to be the order of the day.”
Maybe
that’s my problem?
Maybe
I read too much of guys like, Tozier and Ravenhill and
Spurgeon?
There
isn’t a man on earth who ever does right?
Well,
at least I have something to shoot for today…God’s
righteousness…
