It is amazing how God does things sometimes. Sometimes doesn't quite cut it I know. God is good.....all the time, as the song goes. But, how He does things through even the worst circumstances is what amazes me.
You hear stories of people who have made it through war, torture, death, or violent crime and they still praise God. How they can do that, I do not know. He reveals Himself in these situations we may not always understand. But, God does something in them or through them that has brought change in those coming against them. And God heals them in the process.
My story today is nothing like that. No, not even remotely close to that. But, God has shown me something that was brought about in an ungodly situation. The details do not matter, but God used someone else to show me something that I did not want to admit. Suffice to say, it is a sin in me that was caused by sin done to me. It never really hit me that I did what I did in quite the way it was shown to me. I'm not quite sure how I didn't see it before. I actually thought I had but I didn't. God used a sin to reveal sin. I was amazed.
I'm not quite sure where to go with it. I know how it has affected my life. But, so have many other things. This is but one issue in a myriad of issues. Does that mean if I change, or rather allow God to change this in me that the other issues will resolve themselves? Call me skeptical. If anyone can change things, it is God. The problem is two-fold: Will I let God change me? Do I want God to change things?
Right now.....I don't know.
Until next time,
