Heartbreaking

 This past week 

the results of months of documentation 

came to a close 

and we found out 

that a man revered in the Christian faith 

had fallen.  

It all came out after he died 

but it would seem like for many 

a gigantic dump truck of trash 

came and unloaded its contents 

at our door.


Such grief 

sadness

confusion

concern for all those directly involved, 

family, victims 

and the many many that had

 heard, spoken to 

and perhaps even placed this man on a personal pedestal.

What does it say?


First of all it says we're ALL human 

and BUT FOR THE GRACE of God 

there go I!

Ask yourself how this affected you?

Did you want to dive in to the details...

thirsty for the "more"?

Did you weep?

Did you stand in unbelief?

Did you become self righteous or

did you fall on your knees, 

calling out to God for mercy?

Is anyone safe?  

Can anyone stand?  

Is there no one righteous ..

not even one?

Many prayers have been raised of late asking for exposure.

The Scripture says to be sure 

that your sin will find you out 

Numbers 32:23

It says also

 that judgement will begin in the Church

 1 Peter 4:17


Heres what I do know:

We are not powerless against sin.

We stand without excuse.

We must discipline ourselves to Godliness.

Christ's Grace is sufficient...

Giving us the ability to say no.

I could go on and on

and

perhaps you should!

Find the scripture references for the above 

and then talk to the Lord 

about this

 and tell me what He has to say

My recommendation?  

WALK CLOSE TO THE MASTER 

AND DO NOT BECOME WISE IN YOUR OWN EYES


BLESSINGS
