Meditate On
However, those the Father has given Me will come to Me,
and I will never reject them.
John 6:37, NLT
Come As
You Are To Jesus
Years ago, someone I knew suddenly stopped coming to
church for a long time. I eventually met up with him to find out how he was
doing and to see if everything was all right. He was very honest with me and
told me that he was going through a lot of problems in his marriage, and that
he was now addicted to alcohol. Then, he said this: “Let me get my life right,
then I will come back to church.”
I smiled and asked him, “Do you clean yourself before you
take a bath?” I could tell from his expression that he was taken aback by my
question, so I told him, “Come as you are to the Lord. He is the bath. He will
cleanse you. He will get your life in order for you, and He will cause every
addiction to lose its hold on you. You don’t have to use your own efforts to
clean yourself before you take a bath!”
I am glad to share that this precious brother soon
returned to church and Jesus turned his life around. Today, he is happily
married, blessed with a beautiful family and is one of my trusted, key leaders.
Beloved, that is what the Lord does when you come to Him
just as you are, and allow Him to love you into wholeness. So don’t wait for
things to be “perfect” in your life first. Just come to Him today. Let Him make
all things beautiful in your life!
