I’d like for you to think about something. I want you to think about being convicted. Not being convicted of a crime. But being convicted by God. How many times have you felt convictions? How many times have you felt God telling you to do something? Or to stop doing something? Daily? Weekly? Monthly? More or less? We will all experience being convicted at some point or another in our lives. You can count on that.
And you can count on this as well. God will not stop convicting you until you act on it. read that again. God will not stop convicting you until you act on it. He’s not going away. So you have choices here. Stop doing what he is telling you to stop doing. Start doing what he is telling you to start doing. Or don’t do either, and keep being convicted. Choice is yours. Plain and simple. You get to decide how you respond.
So today, maybe it’s the beginning of you listening to what he’s telling you. Maybe it’s the day for you to open your heart to what he’s telling you. Understand this, whatever he’s convicting you of is for your own good. Whether you like it or not. It is for your own good. And more importantly, it is for his glory. To show others who he is. We have all heard the saying…”The wages of sin is death.” I believe that God convicts us to help us realize that sin lies ahead. It’s his way of showing us what he wants us how to act or respond. And I also believe he does this because he loves us. He always has. He always will.
