I believe we have now reached a situation in world history where a large number of people do not know anything about the existence of God. They may have heard about Him, but never got to know Him or experience His existence and love. So how can they possibly miss Him in their lives?
Modern lives are busy and full of distractions, concerns, worries, ambitions, goals and many other things good as well as bad on which to focus our attention.
We just do not have time for God. To search for Him, to learn about Him, and to get to know Him.
If He is not in our lives we can hardly miss Him.
Until one day when we get to meet Him face to face. And then it will be too late.
Because then we will get to really know Who God is, we would experience and witness His infinite love for His creations and yet we would have willingly excluded ourselves from this eternal love.
All because we did not take the time to find Him in this life.
A little bit of quiet time and humility solves all of this.
ReplyDelete...I'm with Sandi.
ReplyDeleteAmen.
DeleteGod bless, Sandi and Tom.
I can't fathom how anyone didn't make time. Perhaps, like the laughing young man I once interviewed, "I've all the time in the world!" (Sadly, he passed less than a year later.)
ReplyDeleteThat's the problem, Mevely. People just do not make time to find out about God. They're too busy enjoying the present life.
DeleteMy book helps in a step by step journey of discovery of God ... and self.
God bless you.
I'm grateful every day that God took pity on my foolishness and put me on His path to redemption. How can we NOT want to know Him?
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Victor!
We have so many things to be grateful for, Martha. Praise be to God.
DeleteGod bless you and yours.
The school that I went to as a kid just reopend their K-6 after closing it down 50 years ago and it is projected to be filled right away. The school always had a great reputation. There is hope for the younger kids now to learn about God. I hope it works out for them and their families.
ReplyDeleteWhat great and happy news, Bill. Thank you for letting us know. Let us hope and pray that a new generation gets to learn about God.
DeleteGod bless.
A sad situation. I can't even imagine going through life without God!!
ReplyDeleteWe have many ministries in our church trying to bring the gospel to others. Sadly some just don't want to know!
It is so good that your church is helping minister to the people, Happyone.
DeleteGod bless always.
You said the truth, as you do many times, and it is a good reminder to pay attention of the world around us.
ReplyDeleteThanks for being there and HERE on the net. WE appreciate your insight and honesty (AND PRAYERS).

You are always so kind to me, Jack and Sherry. Thank you so much for your friendship. Praying for you all.
DeleteGod bless you and your family.
When you have lived your whole life knowing God it is hard to believe there are people that don't know about God, what is more sad to me is those that know and have gone astray
ReplyDeleteYou are right, Connie. There are so many who do not know God, or have gone astray from Him. I hope my book "Searching for God" helps in this respect.
DeleteGod bless.l
My prayer is for everyone to find Him, and I try (although I know I don't always succeed) to be pointing to Him by my actions.
ReplyDeleteAmen Mimi. How right you are.
DeleteGod bless.
