Luke 18:8 - “Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh shall he find faith on earth?”
This bible passage has been my object of meditation for the past few days, it might seem as a harmless question. But it triggered different thoughts in me, as a Christian does the "Son of man" see you as a person of faith?.
I'm not speaking of faith in the context of just receiving things from God by believing but Faith as a path of obedience to God.
Why am i saying this? WALK WITH ME PLEASE.
In the late evening of Feb 14, i discovered that i didn’t just enjoy reading but also enjoyed writing down the products of my thoughts. I became elated about writing, like a child that was gifted a new toy, my joy in this new found hobby of mine was boundless. Ever since the discovery, my mind was constantly on the lookout on things to write about and guess what it affected "My altar" (My devotion to God).
My desires to the things of God became apathetic, i had a new found love.
A Dangerous move if you ask me, which in turn led to decisions i now regret but well His word says "..Where sin abounds, Grace abounds more".
A question i kept asking myself was, Aren't we permitted to love other things?
Oh!! Yes we are, but No! not at the detriment of the Love of God.
Hence, i had to make a choice chase success in writing or be found of faith when the "Son of man" comes, you might be thinking we should be allowed to have both, I concur but I'm also not willing to take the risk so i leave that option to the benevolence and loving-kindness of God.
I love God man!, and He's indispensable to me and i hope to put him first till my time here comes to an end and If it takes the sacrifice of taking my foot off the "gas of writing" I'll be there lol.
