My Words to God

Lord, I have os many questions. “Why this and why that?” I’m like a curious child. I’ll bend your ear when I finally get to heaven and can ask them all. It occurs to me, though, that by then none of them will matter. I will be just so happy to have made it to the place you’ve prepared for me, where cares and worries, sickness and fear do not exist. Then all that is unknown to me here will be known, and I will have full understanding and wisdom as you promised.

Read: Joshua 24:14-18

Choose for your-selves this day whom you will serve. Joshua 24:15

People are all the same. We want to love free from all restrictions. Give us 99 freedoms and one limitation, and we’ll lobby to get that single prohibition removed.

For example, some conservative Christian colleges have been relaxing the rules. I visited the campus of a school that once penalized everything from move attendance to women wearing pants. Through the years they have eased up on many of those regulations, but they still prohibit dancing. The current student body is up in arms over it—petitioning to get this last restriction removed by the administration.

It’s funny. We want complete freedom but we really can’t ever have it. we’ll never be able to do whatever we want. The Bible indicates that we are servants, where we like the idea or not. We serve either God or Satan.

I read about some slave-making ants of the Amazon. Hundreds of these ants periodically swarm out of the nest and raid colonies of weaker ants. After destroying all defenders who resist them, they carry away. After destroying all defenders who resist the, they carry away cocoons containing the larvae of working ants. When these “captive children” hatch, they assume they are part of the family and begin to do the jobs they were “born” to do. As part of the family, they

never realize that they are forced-labor victims of the enemy.

We too enter the world as slaves. But God has provided a way out. When we trust Jesus Christ, we are released from the condemnation of sin (Romans 8). Then, with the help of the Holy Spirit, we can begin serving the Lord.

Let’s face it. we are either servants of Satan or servants of Christ (Matthew 6:24). As Jesus pointed out, it’s not a matter of whether we will serve, but whom. – Matt De Haan
