Spiritual Ears To Hear

Dearly beloved friends, don't always believe everything you hear just
because someone says it is a message from God: test it first to see if
it really is. For there are many false teachers around, and the way to
find out if their message is from the Holy Spirit is to ask:, 1 John 4:1-2...Lord,
I know this might sound crass...but did he say those things, in Truth
or was he just lusting after a piece of @$$! In the heat of the moment, I
never thought to ask...You. God, is this what you would have your
beloved do...believe someone whose pride, pain or anger has them
confused?

Now I'm left feeling used...and abused. Because ignorance was
bliss...and my mortal conduct was remiss...when I excepted the role of a
mistress. For I chose to lean on my own understanding...instead of
Your...commandments. Yes, "hurting people, hurt other people",
trying to figure it out. And there are sure to be those who get hurt, in
the process, without a doubt. But when we stand before God...it will
all boil down to the fact that the choices were ours...to make.

Personal responsibility, all of us must take...and casting blame we must
forsake. For on Judgment Day...He will require us to except
responsibility, for the beds that we made...where we mutually laid.
Before we received Christ and got saved...applied wisdom and prayed. We
mustn't be tethered to our past sins...because we refuse to take full
responsibility for them. True repentance, requires that we recognize our
sin. Take responsibility and acknowledge the fact that, we could have
simply asked Him...to guard our hearts and minds, from the wilds of
married men...and the desire to covet, someone elses husband.
