Spiritual journal entry 3

Galatians 6:8

Those who live only to satisfy their own sinful nature will harvest decay and death from that sinful nature. But those who live to please the Spirit will harvest everlasting life from the Spirit.

This verse really spoke to me today, as I meditated on it even more, It was clear to me that even the smallest of sin separates us from a holy God. The slightest misalignment disconnects us from God, for evil can't stand in His awesome splendor and glory.

An epiphany of death came unto me, as God spoke and said "what use is it that you gain all the wealth in the kingdom(earth) but loses your soul, isn't it far better to gain eternity and love others with everything you have than to hoard and amass riches that fade" 
At that moment I was speechless. How powerful it is indeed when God speaks, He clears the cloud of doubt and fear and anxiety over my life and spoke with such piercing clarity. Indeed His word is like a double edged sword, cleaving the word from the Spirit and that from the world, making known to me His inner most thoughts! Praise God indeed (:
