Pray more.

Isaiah 64

"You come to the help of those who gladly do right,
who remember your ways.
But when we continued to sin against them,
you were angry.
How then can we be saved? "

"Yet, O LORD, you are our Father.
We are the clay, you are the potter;
we are all the work of your hand.

Do not be angry beyond measure, O LORD;
do not remember our sins forever.
Oh, look upon us, we pray,
for we are all your people.

Your sacred cities have become a desert;
even Zion is a desert, Jerusalem a desolation.

Our holy and glorious temple, where our fathers praised you,
has been burned with fire,
and all that we treasured lies in ruins.

After all this, O LORD, will you hold yourself back?
Will you keep silent and punish us beyond measure?"


Kind of what I was thinking of yesterday. We are all sinners, we were made by God, we were all called, yet most will, a big majority will still fall short, what is the point?
God does not show favoritism, he saves all who have sinned through Jesus who was the ultimate sacrifice. All we have to do is acknowledge and accept. Yet we all have a different opinion on who God is and accept who is going to be saved.

To God be the Glory
