P. 9
hands of us, and He is just standing there with a big rod waiting
to beat us because we are away from Bethlehem. But it is not
that way at all. What God is doing instead is engineering our
situation and our circumstances so that we will finally come to
the place where we know He is enough.
When we come to the place that we call Him El Shaddai, we
will come crawling back to Bethlehem. And when we come
crawling back to Bethlehem, we have crawled over the
threshold which is the beginning of a life that is an oasis, a life
that is filled with joy and relationship and produces a Savior for
the world. That is why God does that in our lives. Every
forward step in your life in helplessness is a forward step in the
knowledge of God and in the knowledge of His Word.
The most victorious moment in any Christian’s life is the day
he got saved because in that day he was nothing and Christ was
everything. So the whole Christian life is nothing more than
going back to what we were when we first got saved, and as we
have received Christ we are to walk in Him in that same way.
So, we grow backwards to the cradle.
Back to Bethlehem
Jesus is more than enough….
