I have seen people who abandon God use evidence of ease as a sign that they were right to leave. They mistake self-gratification for joy and silence for peace. They concede the fight and then claim the win. https://twitter.com/LDProphetQuotes/status/1198248934306713603">https://twitter.com/LDProphet...
Satan has no further quarrel w/one he has convinced, defeated, recruited, or destroyed entirely. What follows is silence bc he has shut up. Mercy cannot equalize the vacuum bc this child of God has walked out of reach. The product of giving up is not peace, but a literal void.
Some resolve this by convincing thesmselves, “I always was alone & neither God nor the devil exists,” or “I prefer being alone to waging the battle.” These both depend upon the assumption that one *is* alone in the void. The opposite is true. Both remain present.
Both the angel & the devil observe your motionless, languishing spirit for signs of movement. The angel calls you to consciousness, implores you to inch toward the reach of mercy. The devil looms like a prize fighter only too happy to return you to the ‘peace’ of unconsciousness.
You wait there for the referee to finish the count so you can get out of the ring and go home. Surely that’s where you’ll find peace. Only this world is not your home. You’re going home with one of *them*, either as an equal & a friend, or as a minion & a slave.
I do not say this to injure or belittle those who rebel against God. I wish to stand next to the angel & implore. Wake up! Open your eyes. Move toward mercy. You’re my family, the family of Christ. I want you to win—not the religion argument, your soul & eternal salvation.
I want your wounds to heal & forgiveness to flow over you like the tide, washing away all the dust & muck that collects on things that stagnate. I want you to feel the love of God, come into his family, & stay forever. I want you to win.
You may think, “You don’t even know me. If you did, you wldnt like me or the way I’d treat you.” Maybe the same Twitter anonymity that allows ppl to hate each other in a way they never wld in person, can allow us to love each other in a way we flawed beings never could in person.
Trolls think, “I can hate you w/o knowing you, bc I know your kind & you deserve it.” Why not take advantage of that social media loophole & say, “I can love you w/o knowing you, because I know your kind. You’re a child of God. You’re hurting. You’re trying. I want to help.”
God exists and he loves you. If you never knew it, I hope you do someday. If you knew and rejected it, you know it still. His love will not go away. Someday you’ll have to reconcile yourself to it. I hope you do sooner rather than later. There’s a lot of joy waiting for you.
