“Understanding The Why”

2 Corinthians 12:10

Why is defined as for what reason, cause, or purpose?; motive; how.

We all have heard the saying; “You forgot where you came from.” The problem with that saying is we really didn’t forget where we came from; we just may not want to live there anymore. We see things a certain way until we are exposed to another way of looking at things. We here people say, “That’s the way I was raised.” We then find out there is more to life then just how we were raised. And then we begin to understand the why. True knowledge can make us grow to the point where we get tired of thinking inside the block placed upon ourselves and by others. We get to a point where we think we just can’t live life the way we are living it any more. We may have to break away from some friends or family who are bringing us down. Once again they may tell us, we forgot where we came from. But in reality we didn’t forget where we came from. We just have gotten an understanding of the why and decided to do something different with our life and we can’t live there anymore. The more we learn and are exposed to new ideas and different ways it becomes harder to stay in the same old place. Increase in knowledge and understanding so when God opens the door to where we are waiting to go, we will be ready to go through the door.

I come by this evening to let you know we must understand the strength of our faith is not based on the works we do, the strength of our faith is based on the work of Christ that was done for us. Now that we understand why we must strive to do better. Be blessed and I love you!!! JE
