"When I Looked at the wicked I almost slipped."

‎David was a man that loved God, but what's even greater God loved David best. He was a man after God's own heart, but even David foot almost slipped when he began looking back at how much the wicked was prospering.

Just recently I had an episode of doubting. Yes, I said doubting! I am sure that we have all have had times in our life's that we have wondered if doing right really ever pays off; especially, when you see the unrighteous seeming to always be getting ahead.

I was quickly remained by a good friend that overall who was I going to stand before. In other words; what may seem like it's okay now may not be okay on the JUDGMENT DAY, but not only that; our ULTIMATE goal is to be like Jesus and not the world.

David only begin to slip when he looked at the world. My point is that we shouldn't even be looking at the world.

Like Peter who had taken his eyes off of Jesus to look around, we too will began to sin in our walk with Christ too if we began to look around and compare ourselves to the world.

Sure the world may seem like they are having a grand ole time, but sin only last for a season, and yes many are the afflictions of the righteous, but God will deliver them out of them all. Hello! God will deliver....God is in charge of what?? To deliver us. Notice I said to deliver us because like the old saints used to say, "Oh how I want to be in that number, when the saints go marching in." That will be the ultimate day of our deliverance. It will make all of our suffering her worth it all.

I know that THE WAY may not always be easy, but Jesus promised that IF we would suffer with Him then we would reign with him. God is not slack concerning his promises. So keep your eyes fixed upon Jesus, and remember no matter how rough the storms may get JESUS IS STILL ON THE BOAT. Keep the faith and keep your eyes fixed on Jesus and not the world. For narrow is the gate that leads to eternal life and few be that find it. Those that do find it, and don't stay the course will not obtain the prize.

HEAVEN IS THE FINISH LINE! DON'T GIVE UP UNTIL YOU FINISH THE RACE. LET NOTHING STOP YOU. EVEN IF YOU GET TIRED, REST BUT DON'T QUIT! KEEP PRESSING ON!!!
