After a few days of noticing a fly trapped between a screen and
window (without food, water, or whatever else bugs need), since
he hadn't died, I decided to open the window to let it go free.
Only, the fly refused to fly away, preferring starvation and
imprisonment. And not only that but, another fly joined him!
Misery likes company? I don't know.
But then, I thought, "God, is that where we are right now, as a
people; the door has been opened but we're still sitting in
bondage?" Maybe. Only, soon after came the message that one of
us didn't survive. An old friend became ill and committed
suicide, as a result, and he was a believer!
The question, then, came to mind, "What, on earth, are we
believing in? What happened to the God of miracles? Do we think
He is dead!?"
Maybe he was told that miracles were only for the early church,
as if God loved them more. Or, maybe, he received the updated
version that God can heal, if He wants to, as if we've finally
given Him permission. Or, he could have bought into the theory
that there are some people God loves more. Are you buying this?
This I know, for sure. If you are not free, it isn't the truth.
Whatever holds you in bondage is not true. Whatever keeps you
from your rightful place with God isn't true. Whatever stands
between you and your calling, it isn't true. Just maybe it has
to get bad enough before we're willing to seek truth at all
cost.
Being free begins with acknowledging who is the all seeing, all
knowing, all loving God and choosing Him over all that is not.
And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me
with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:13
