Becoming A Vessel Of Honor Rebecca Brown

146 tried to send ME on guilt trips? For example ‘Father IF You loved me, how could you let this happen to me?’" Needless to say, I did NOT want such an accounting! How many times have YOU tried to send God on guilt trips? "God IF You loved me how could You let this happen to me? God IF You loved me You would give me so-and-so! How can a loving God allow such-and-such to happen?" ALL such questions are SIN and a mark of our terrible im maturity. It is time we Christians grew up! Paul said: We MUST put all such childish things behind us. Let us face up to our responsibilities and commitments and fulfill them in righteousness before God. Let us fight this fight against our sin natures and WIN. This is the way to an abundant life in Jesus Christ our Lord. If the reader is convicted by this chapter to rise up and take control of his/her sin nature, a good place to start is by a thorough confession of all your past sins to God. Please see Appendix A for some helpful notes on how to approach such a confession. "When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things." I Corinthians 13:11
