God and His Coolness


Galatians 6:7
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.
The Truth: If we sow a Godly action, we will reap a Godly blessing. If we sow an ungodly action, we reap Godly discipline or judgment. 

I love this verse and am thankful, especially recently that God is just. It seems as though the world and the flesh never stop trying to pull you under, the devil is always so thorough in his attacks to try and make you quit. I am thankful that in having a heart that wants to follow him, even though sometimes it is hard to keep focused on this side of it, we will be blessed for our Godly decisions and be eternally rewarded. It is most often what keeps me going! Our God is so gracious to even think about us while we are here on earth and He does. It’s so comforting to remember that in our striving, God see’s us – He knows our struggle between right and wrong. He knows that He created us with a free will. And in that He is always trying to make us a better people, a people that love Him more and desire to know Him in the most intimate of ways, He shows mercy and justice when needed. Throughout all of my life, I can think of several occurrences that where if justice hadn’t of been served, if I wasn’t disciplined for my wrongs – I would still be stuck in that same ol’ rut today. I would be the same destructive Hollie and there would be no change for the better. I can also think of times where, especially in the past couple of years; I have chosen to do right, follow and obey God and have seen the amazing outcome of those choices. God is true to His promise’s, He is faithful to love us in the truest way.

I will forever be thankful for this promise, and I will most definitely from here on out always strive to make the best possible choices and decisions. My heart so longs to know Him more and to serve Him in every aspect of my life. I want to know Him just as He knows me, which yeah that may be impossible because He is God. I picture it though and I pray for it because knowing Him just as little as I do now has most definitely been the most amazing experience in my lifetime. Honestly.
