If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. (2 Chron 7:14 KJV)
IF... What is God talking about.... IF?
I often hear thing like if God is so good why did he allow such and such to happen. The reality is that we do have choices to make. God will not force His will on anyone. He allows us a certain freedom to do what we will rather than His will. If we choose to destroy the land; if we choose to destroy one another, should we blame God because we made those choices?
Yet, God does hear those who would turn from their destructive ways to follow in His way. He hears. He answers. He will forgive our sins. He will heal all that is broken due to our sinful ways.
May God help us to see the way in which He would have us go. May God give us the strength and the courage to follow in that way.
God's Peace - Pr. J.
