“Say to them, As I live, declares the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from his way and live; turn back, turn back from your evil ways, for why will you die, O house of Israel?” ~ Ezekiel 33:11
If we cry and feel extreme loss when a loved one dies, that we will one day see again, imagine how God feels when one of His children dies spiritually. A child He knew before they were in their mother’s womb. A child He formed by hand, breathed His breath of life into their nostrils, heard their first heartbeat, placed them in their mother’s womb, built the path of freedom for them, and gave His own life on across so that they could one day live, Imagine the pain He feels as He watches that child commit spiritual suicide.
No one can murder you spiritually only, you can murder your own spirit, so imagine that loss He feels. God is love, Because of us, there is now always loss, God doesn’t take joy in punishing the wicked because He loves you. He wants you home. He waits on the road watching for just the sight of you to appear so He can run to you. So He can embrace you. So that you can live once again.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Remember God’s Tears.
