Left Behind For Bad Behavior?

[Pam]

I really enjoyed reading this thread and feel encouraged by it.

I have been one of those who questioned my salvation in the past.
God has delivered me in many areas, however at times I have doubted my worthiness.

Striving to be a better person day by day is a lifelong job. I think when we focus more on
loving and serving others for God, we have less time to worry about our own shortcomings.

I'm thankful God loves me unconditionally and understands and forgives my weaknesses.

My favorite saying (well,one of them) is: "Faith takes work, sin does not have to."
You can lie in bed and sin up a storm. Your works, your testimony takes work. Blood, sweat, and tears. Sometimes a lot of them! If we were to be left behind for bad behavior, Heaven would be a lonely place.

Romans 3:23(KJV)
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

All includes everybody, Christian,non-Christian,Jew,Gentile, you get the picture. The solution?
1 Thessalonians 5:17(KJV)
Pray without ceasing.

Constantly beg the Lord for forgiveness. If you are saved, you are sealed up in His Book. Now, work on your rewards!
