Something to Think About

• God knows all, sees all, is all powerful, and ever present.
• God is never stupid.
• He created me to be a human being.  He knows I'm fallible, fragile, and vulnerable.
• He knows that because of my humanity I have a principle of sin, which indwells me.
• God knows what I will think, say and do a bazillion years before I do.  Nothing surprises Him.
• Does God allow me to sin?   He has the power to convict me before I do what is wrong?  He could easily force me to follow Him perfectly.
• Does He wait to see if I will use my free will to choose His way over my way?
• Would God ever allow me to sin because He knows that in my brokenness He can capture more of my heart for Him?   
• God uses my failures and brokenness to turn my heart, mind, face, and will back toward Him.
• When I fail, I'm reminded of my deep, complete need for my Heavenly Father, my Savior ... Jesus, and the Holy Spirit, my heavenly Power Source.
