As you travel between the promise and the promise land, you must guard the eyes of your heart. When the focus of your heart turns from what you have to what you do not have, it is time to work on your heart before it takes your feet towards the things that are detrimental to your journey. Addiction starts with dissatisfaction with what you have and attraction to what you do not have. This then can lead you to an addiction to something that will be difficult to overcome once you are hooked. You need to be the one whose heart runs ahead of your feet towards home, pursuing the One who bids you to follow Him. When God painfully seems to takes things away, He is healing you and loving you; in tears tearing things away from your heart to bless you with eternal freedom for your eternal joy. He gives and takes away for His glory and for your eternal and infinite pleasure. Journey is long but you will never be alone.
You are not alone. I am not alone. Thankful for the body of Christ. Pastor Min Chung, thank you for helping me to love God a little bit more tonight.
