Bundle of Contradictions

Wow, summer has gone by so fast...and I didn't blog much at all! Oops.

One of my friends is having a terrible time with satan. He's been feeding her lies for a while and now those lies are being brought to the light, praise God. I don't know exactly what lies...maybe I'll ask her. But this is one of satan's methods of attack. He lies, changes what is truth to something else...and today I am feeling like a bundle of contradictions, so I think I'll just write truth in my blog.

TRUTH

Jesus is the truth.

God is love.

God is sovereign.

God speaking: Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and rock of offense, and whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.- Romans 9:33

But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed say to him who formed it, "Why have you made me like this?"-Romans 9:20

But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name -John 1:12

For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. - Romans 8:13

And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. -Romans 8:28

If God is for us, who can be against us?...Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?...For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels, nor principalities nor powers, no things present nor present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. -Romans 8:end

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for the ungodly (that would be ME). -Romans 5:8

As for this bundle of contradictions, I desire to be shepherded, but then I don't like how I am being shepherded. I cry because of this present situation, yet I still procrastinate in taking action. I desire to desire God, yet I seek after food more than I seek after God.

My only hope is in Jesus. He is steadfast. Sure. Never-changing. He always remains constant. On Christ the solid Rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand. It is true.

I love you, Jesus.
