Choose to Love Jesus!

Listen to this blog.

Everyone on this earth
will remember you, [Lord].
People all over the world
will turn and worship you,

because you are in control,
the ruler of all nations.

All who are rich
and have more than enough
will bow down to you, Lord.
Even those who are dying
and almost in the grave
will come and bow down.

In the future, everyone
will worship and learn
about you, our Lord.

Psalm 22:27-30

There will come a day when no one will smugly proclaim that God does not exist. The ability to question the reality of God is a gift from God so that we can love Him of our own free will. So don't be frustrated by atheists. God willingly allows men not to believe in Him.

What an amazing love God has for men. He hides Himself so that we may freely choose to love Him. Then when we do turn our hearts to Jesus He sends the Holy Spirit to fill us and lead us on the path.

Some believe that we really have no choice, and that God has determined in advance who will follow Him. A fundamental problem with that view is that it violates the nature of love and the fact that God made man in His own image. It is the choice of man that makes Him much like God. The redemptive love of Jesus was a choice that God made. The eternal companionship of the saved with the Son was a choice of the Father.

God has chosen you to be His child, but you must also choose Him to be your Father. When you do God will no longer be hidden from you. When you love Jesus He will be hidden in you!
