Everything I Love is Killing Me (softly)

 

Cigarette, Jack Daniels, Drugs, Caffeine, Sexual immorality, Anger or Depression. What is killing me? What is killing you? I bet we know that moment something real and true on the inside is telling us, “Baby, it is time to go home”. It is time to open that door.


What is killing me? Junks in my trunk. Lustful desires that I know it is not of God, always weighing me down. It is a big struggle for me.
Sometimes, it is all I can do, to cry me a river. Other times I just groan and shout me Abba Father! Please give me the strength to say no to that killing me softly, and Yes to Jesus. I know what is killing me, and day-by-day to lay them all down at the feet of Jesus, because my tiny little strength cannot fix it, is my prayer.


Do I need to know what is killing you softly? I do not think so. Jesus does. He sees your tears, struggles, pain, heartbreaks, shame of old regrets and many disappointments.

While you see miseries, Jesus sees melody. He sees help. He can save you another heartbreak.

This is the beautiful part I love so much; Jesus says, “Behold I stand at the door and knock, if anyone (irrespective of whom you are or what you have done) hears my voice and opens the door (of your heart), I will come to him/her and dine with him/her, and he/she with me.

Does it matter what is killing you and me softly? Well I do not think so. What matter is coming to Jesus.

Please accept this great invitation today. You will not regret it.

Will you?
