Topic:
What You Want
The love of Christ does not support a gospel that promises you can
have anything you want from God when you want it. The truth is you
cannot have anything you want from God when you want it. A loving God
wouldn't give a sinner anything the sinner wants. Grace is sufficient in
the face of our wants and needs because grace can help us temper,
control, and even eliminate our selfish wants and needs. As a result of
experiencing the love of Christ or grace, do you deserve to get anything
you want? No! No matter how much you surrender up to Christ, you do not
deserve to get anything you want from Christ because of your sin. Let's
express this truth another way. If the redeeming, restoring, empowering,
beautiful gift of grace from God is not enough...getting
"things" from God will never make you happy or give you peace.
If the redeeming, restoring, empowering, beautiful gift of grace from
God is not enough...getting all of your wants and needs filled will
never make you happy or give you peace.
