Come Back to God With Your Whole Heart

Even way back in the old testament in the bible, God was establishing the basic rule of thumb. When we are either disobedient or straight up acting like the devil, there will be consequences. Many times people say, “I don’t know why this is happening to me”. I do, because your bad behavior has finally brought you an unwanted harvest of trouble. We will always reap what we sow, whether it’s negative words, or an act of malicious intent, etc (Galatians 6:7-8). God will always respond to evil doings with a corrective response that can rock our world. If God can get our attention when we are wilding out, to bring us back to Himself, He will try. Ultimately it’s our choice whether we want His help or not. You can decide to come to God for the first time for help, or you’re coming back to Him because you’ve had enough of going against the grain of life. God promised us life, and life more abundantly (John 10:10), but it is a participatory program, and there are conditional terms that must be met (this is where many christians fall away). The Lord declares, “Return to Me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping, and mourning”. If you’re coming to Him for the help you need, you got to come correct, your heart has to be in it. The Lord is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love. He’s waiting on you to take the first steps toward Him. Seek and you shall find knock and the doors will be opened to God’s treasures of life.
