so we all know that God is good, and loves us all soo very much.. and receiving Him is also the best thing that can ever happen to us in our life.. then the question is this: If God is so great/amazing/awesome, why is it then that there are still Christians who after knowing Him still backslide or even completely leave the faith? just doesn't make any sense..
Was reading Jeremiah 2:5
5 Thus says the LORD:
“ What injustice have your fathers found in Me,
That they have gone far from Me,
Have followed idols,
And have become idolaters?
got me thinking that God never did anything bad to us, or hurt us in anyway.. He is God and is perfect and is love! Why then even knowing all that and even experiencing it would we still want to leave for other things(idols). It's like finding the keys to this huge mansion, but instead of taking we choose to lower ouselves and live in some dingy flat. It's pretty hard to understand since God is THE best, why would anyone else want to settle with anything else that is second best?? What's more is that the God that we serve is a real and living God, who actually does have all power and authority!! unlike those fake gods or idols who are just made up of wood and stone.. Why then would anyone want to leave such treasure?
At the end of the day, are we just foolish blind humans? Where have our eyes gone? What are we looking or focusing on? or are we just blinded by the facade of the things and the simple pleasures of this world.. it's time to stop playing with fire!
