WHAT IF?

What if today you were brought face to face with something that would be, for you, considered life or death? But what if the decision as to whether it was life, or death, was based solely upon a choice or response that you made? And what if you were presented with the idea that your “good” was not good enough, and that your own personal justification had no bearing upon the outcome of the judgment whatsoever because the actual passing of that judgment would come from a Source outside of your control? And what if you were told that unless you allow yourself, and the Judge, to look into the depth of who you really are, to discover your wretchedness and brokenness, as well as all your hidden things being opened up and laid to bear, things you want no one to ever see, as the requirement for your deliverance from the absolute consequences that would come should you not let it happen?

What if your surrender meant total absolution, wholeness and eternal joy as a result? Would you do it? Would you risk it all? What if there was no other way to be set free? And what if you were being presented with that choice every single moment, of every single day? What would think, and what would your decision be?

The Spirit of God says this: 

“Today, 

if you hear His voice, 

do not harden your heart…” 

Hebrews 3:7-8
