Saved, but

“Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you. For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and deep darkness the people; But the Lord will arise over you, And His glory will be seen upon you.”   ~ Isaiah 60: 1-2

“For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance.”  ~ Hebrews 6:4-6a

It IS impossible
Yes
It IS.
Jesus
died once
for you
for me,
Not over and over again,
repeatedly,
every time you fall away
and come back.

You soul be saved
but your life …
you’ve missed the boat
disobedient to His teachings.

No time do you make
to open His book
to read and study His Word
You may attend church
You may listen to the preacher
But do you apply what you hear to your life
Do you consider the consequences of every thought and action you partake
Do you pray

Do you seek God’s goodness all around you
or only folly

Be still
Hear My voice
Surround yourself
with My Presence
Do not dwell on that which you find wrong
with your surroundings
Seek My Presence
and My Glory will brighten the world around you
and you will see
and hear
and smell
and touch
and speak
an abundance of good things

When you refuse to come
into My Presence
I am grieved
but you too,
are filled with a sadness
unable to define

I offer you so much

But until you turn the page,
live life moving forward rather than backward
learn from the errors of your selfish ways
Until you want more of My Goodness,
more of My Love
More of My Joy
More of Me
Until you hear and obey My Voice,
you do not really know Me.

Your soul be saved,
but your life is being wasted.
