the thin line

Seldom do we consider what goes on behind the scenes of an event or special occasion, we just arrive at the appointed time for the enjoyment and fellowship.  We try to plan for the event so that we are on time, however; it’s a thin line between being on time an being late.

You’ve heard it said “there is a thin line between love and hate” but what does that really mean? Can what is perceived as love become hate? Hate is a very strong emotion, it imply s the person who hates another is emotionally lost; without any understanding of who God really is.

On the other hand God is love, if you know him and have surrendered to him; you are an extension of his love and therefore no hate can dwell in you.  I’m sure there will be those who disagree, we are all still human; there will be times when we maybe at odds one to the other. Yet, the love of God causes forgiveness and restoration when conflict arises.

The enemy of souls closes the avenue to forgiveness to allow hate to grow and flourish, those who give in to him are consumed in darkness; devoid of any light.  Darkness is from the evil one, light is from the God of love; you must choose who you will serve. your choice will determine your actions to love or hate.

The line is thin, the consequence; salvation unto eternal life or damnation unto eternal death. The word teaches us narrow is the way that leads to life and few there be who finds it, wide is the way that leads to death; many choose to walk this path.  Life or death the line is thin; the choice you make could be your beginning or end.

There are many devices in the heart of man, but only the counsel of God will stand. Take heed and be wise, keep your head lifted to the sky; seek help from the throne of grace for God alone can determine the end of the race. Though the line maybe thin, the choice hard to make; keep your focus on the light of love shining from Gods face and the right choice you will make.

My revelation as I sit by the pool of grace.
