How do you do it without Jesus?

You don’t you just think you do.

I have often wondered, how people live without the presence of God in their life. I look around and see so many people who don’t acknowledge him, nor give him any credit or speak of him in any way form or fashion.

I am so puzzled with the fact that people wake up every day and give credit to their own doing. I’m baffled at the amount of people who even claim to speak of him, however their lives speak loudly of something different.

I often, think if this person had an encounter with Jesus, they would see things so different. They would choose to live different; they would behave differently. It saddens me to no end that people who say they know him, however they pew gossip, messiness among people, lie, cheat, do all the things which are contrary to having a relationship with Jesus.

I believe, they don’t rely on anything especially not a dependency on their relationship with Jesus. Honestly, having a relationship is more significant than just calling on him in the time of trouble. When we realize that we can have heaven; his way of doing things, his perspective, his love, his peace, his joy, his strength, his understanding, his instruction, his revelation, his wisdom, his way of doing business, his way of treating others, especially our enemies, his plan, and his purpose.

“The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps”

(Prov 16:19)

Yes, Jesus didn’t intend for us to do this life alone.

We don’t have to struggle in our soul (mind, will & emotions), there is an answer to the problems that burden us.

Operating out of the “soulish realm” is dangerous, unforgiving, narcissistic, and extremely nerve racking.

 It turns into an internal fight within yourself, limiting viewing from a spiritual perspective. We notice people who stay in this limited space, switching, and experiencing consistent instability and are dissatisfied with their decisions and life itself.

“But people who aren’t spiritual can’t receive these truths from God’s Spirit. It all sounds foolish to them and they can’t understand it, for only those who are spiritual can understand what the Spirit means. Those who are spiritual can evaluate all things, but they themselves cannot be evaluated by others.”

(1Corin 2:14-15)

The answer is the God that is on the inside of us. We are the answer, when people see our response, our forgiveness, our long suffering, gentleness, our kindness, our unconditional love: they experience a real and tangible glimpse of how it’s really done with Jesus.
