We were created for union with God. Children forever share a blood relationship with their parents; they will always be family. God sees us this same way. For Him the gift of family will never be forgotten, and therefore His promises are irrevocable. Yet this doesn’t mean we can’t separate ourselves from His purpose through neglect or outright rejection. People can, and do. Children often reject heartbroken parents, who are incapable of restoring relationship with them no matter how hard they try.
       No, the problem isn’t on God’s end; it’s on ours. We always have a path to God if we choose to take it. Beware! Judgment is coming to separate out those who are worthy. It is fundamental to God’s purpose for the destiny of mankind. Judgment would be impossible without freedom of choice on our part. Free will is the reflection of God’s nature in our own.

“Faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ,” says Romans 10. People need to hear the Gospel. Words we speak about Jesus may seem inconsequential but in reality are very influential, because God takes that opportunity to drop the promise of eternal life into people’s hearts. This in turn produces a glimmer of hope which motivates them to believe.
       “Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved,” the Bible states. But it also says, “How will they believe in Him whom they have not heard?” We must avoid being pompous, but we also need to speak. Our words become much more powerful when coupled with a humble lifestyle glorifying God. Sometimes God plants the seed of truth through us, sometimes we water, and other times we reap the harvest. What greater privilege is there than to play even a small part in someone’s salvation.
