If It Feels Right, It Must Be True….

There are many different kinds of tragedies in our lives: murder, disease, accidents, betrayals, and the list goes on. Personally, I think the greatest tragedy of all is not listening when God speaks. Why do I say this? By ignoring the voice of God it keeps us in the dark. Never knowing truth, not knowing our purpose, and not having hope turns a fully functional human being into a mess. Anxiety, depression, anger, and discontentedness, are but a few of the dilemmas that escort this type of behavior. This mindset turns a normal human being that has a sense of places and purpose into one that depends totally on how they feel. “If it feels right, it must be true”. How often have you been led astray by the wrong feelings. Depravity sets in when your sole guide in life is based on “how you feel”. God’s voice, His truth, command obedience from the earth and all of its inhabitants. Things work smoother, restore order, and give us a sense of peace when we adhere to it. The moral to this story: don’t ignore God’s voice. If we do, we create our own reality, that the only guarantee that follows is self-inflicted chaos. If you like that kind of lifestyle, be my guest, but when it doesn’t turn out the way you thought it would, you’ll have no one to blame but yourself. God’s voice is the most important thing we can ever take in.

“I destroyed some of your cities,as I destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.Those of you who survivedwere like charred sticks pulled from a fire.But still you would not return to Me,”says the Lord. 12 “Therefore, I will bring upon you all the disasters I have announced.Prepare to meet your God in judgment, you people of Israel!” 13 For the Lord is the One who shaped the mountains,stirs up the winds, and reveals His thoughts to mankind.He turns the light of dawn into darkness and treads on the heights of the earth.The Lord God of Heaven’s Armies is His name! Amos 4:11
