Whats missing ?

What does the prodigal son, Esau, and Judas have in common?  All three neglected to consider what they already had. The prodigal son being impatient, wanted what was going to be inherited unto him right then. Like many of us we want our blessing right away, right now. But if we were to only wait then we could receive all of what God has for us and not portions.

Like Esau many of us feel like we don’t have to do much because we somehow are entitled to an inheritance. Although we have been bought and paid for with a price. That doesn’t mean that we can live however and still receive that inheritance. Don’t let your flesh blind you to think that you should take care of your selfish needs first. Going after that American dream vs going after what God wants for you. God’s Word tells us to seek ye first the Kingdom. In doing so all things will be added. If Esau would have considered the importance of his inheritance, he would have never jeopardized it for anyone let alone a pot of stew.

Many of us don’t sympathize with Judas because we often say “how could he walk with Jesus our Lord and betray Him for 30 pieces of silver”. But I say we all betray our Lord anytime we take for granted salvation. Salvation is freely given to all that would receive. But how many times instead of going to church, bible study or fellowship etc… have you put off going, to do what it was that you wanted to do? I’m sure we all have been there. But the sad thing was after Judas realized his error; he became bogged down with guilt and grief and never recovered. Don’t let this be you. Don’t wait until it’s too late to realize Salvation was right in front of you and you put it off.

Manna for thought: I pray God opens your eyes to see the truth for what it really is. Jesus, that’s what it’s all about. Jesus is the great secret to life that many of us are looking for. It is He that this life we live is all about. Jesus, it is He that we should center our lives around. Don’t continue to live your life missing the big picture, missing what’s so plainly in front of you. Jesus is the way, the TRUTH, and the life and God made salvation available to all that will receive His Truth. Jesus is the answer, the secret and the only key to life period
