Thank you for joining me and reading, I hope this has spurred you to explore the Scripture cited in this post further and grow in your knowledge of God.

 If I had only one chance to speak to you, or if these were the last words I ever got to speak about life I would say, “Growth is a gradual process and I admonish you to be content with progressive knowledge and revelation; Embrace the concept of being unoffended by the Bible, for it is through this mindset that you can face the 'challenging' and uncomfortable aspects of its teachings. Remind yourself of your commitment and persevere, knowing that as your comprehension of Christ's boundless love for you expands, the pieces will start falling into place. On the other side of your choice lies God's response to your receptive heart."
