"Faith is only as great as the circumstances it responds to"
Most people are looking for someone to validate them and thier learning process by finding 'like minds' who agree.
They seek people of the same ilk that think like they do, act like they do, want the same things they do and behave like they do.
Some think of this a unity. It is the Ultimate Prejudicial environment and is contrary to God and His nature.
God has declared diversity and uniqueness in Creation and the empowerment of His will within a persons life.
When he leads, there will be adversity to determine opportunity for development of common agendas by diverse individualtiy.
The bible declares it isn't the person who agrees with you that is of the greatest benefit, but the one who does not.
Anyone can have a fan club, everyone has family who at times will accept you even when wrong, but the scripture declares
"There is a friend who is closer than a Brother"
Jesus did not have disciples who agreed with him.
He did not have a family who fully supported him.
He did not go to a people who completely accepted Him.
He did not say things that everyone understood.
In fact the greatest acheivement He accomplished was listed as the despisement of man and rejection of followers.
Yet that greatest importunity provided God the opportunity to save the world.
To do that and to be that at times you will walk way with God.
And leave men and women behind.
Do not fear to be Enoch
A walk alone with God.
(My prayer)
"Father,
The times and seasons of joy are a delight to you and I praise you for them.
Yet I know O God you spared not your son.
It is a hard saying I pray from scripture today,
for it is of thy will and not mine be done.
But hear me O God and be swift to comply,
Let not my pleasure or comfort prevent you from accomplishing.
As you spared not your only begotten Son in order to do your greater will;
I pray merciful God on bended knee and trembling heart,
If even just for one soul to save,
You spare not I to accomplish your will.
But do as you would.
In living and In dying,
Father,
Thy Will Be Done.
Amen
