I WANT what I WANT when I WANT it.
ENTITLEMENT SPEAKS.
Hmm.
And you know what,
at times I do act
ENTITLED.
I do WANT what I WANT.
I WANT everyone to LOVE JESUS.
I do WANT what I WANT.
I WANT HIS PEACE to fill the world.
I do WANT what I WANT.
I WANT what GOD WANTS.
Isn’t it all GOOD
that I WANT what GOD WANTS?
Aren’t I ENTITLED for GOD to give me what HE WANTS also?
But when I don’t get what
GOD WANTS
when I WANT it,
then I get
DISCOURAGED,
HOPELESS,
&
HELPLESS,
because
why won’t GOD give me what I WANT if it is what HE WANTS.
I am missing the point,
as I am still making it about me.
Oh selfish me.
But as I step back and look in the mirror
and look at my
ENTITLED self,
I see GOD,
looking right back at me,
who has
ENTITLED me
when I least deserved it
HE has invited me
to step into HIS PRESENCE to RECEIVE HIS SON,
who covers me
with HIS ROBE,
and that makes me a member
of HIS KINGDOM
because of
GRACE.
GRACE~
UN~ENTITLED ENTITLEMENT!
GRACE~
GOD'S
"NOT WANTING
anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance"
(2 Peter 3:9).
GOD WANTS what HE WANTS.
GOD has always WANTED you.
GOD WANTS everyone,
even though every one of us are so
UN~ENTITLED
in our fallen state
to get what we don't deserve,
but HE gives it to us anyway
because
GOD WANTS no one to perish.,
ENTITLED BY GRACE.
ENTITLED~
PRIVILEGED.
ACCEPTED.
PERMITTED.
So are we all ENTITLED to being HIS?
Oh YES.
All ENTITLED to the same CHOICE~
"For everyone who calls on the name of the LORD will be saved"
(Romans 10:13).
Do we deserve this PRIVILEGE?
Oh not at all!
Because that is why it is called
GRACE~
A Gift Given. A Gift To Be Received.
I can still
WANT what I WANT when I WANT what GOD WANTS
and
continue
to RUN THE RACE
still ASKING GOD to save the lost,
still ASKING GOD to bless others,
still ASKING GOD to heal others,
still ASKING GOD for what HE tells me to ask HIM for,
because
GOD delights in having a
RELATIONSHIP with all HIS kids,
which ENTITLES us ALL into a
RELATIONSHIP with HIM
through JESUS CHRIST.
Oh SUBMISSIVE ENTITLEMENT
takes the stance of HUMILITY
as you enter into
GOD'S PRESENCE
wearing HIS LABEL
that we don't deserve,
but by GRACE.
The me & the you
who HE has made
ENTITLED~
PRIVILEGED
&
ACCEPTED
&
PERMITTED
to enter into HIS PRESENCE.
Oh the sweet spot of
GRACE
is
LIVING IN CHRIST,
where
you & I & everyone else
have all that we ever WANTED.
I can continue to WANT JESUS for everyone
&
I can continue to WANT what GOD WANTS
as I continue to
RUN THE RACE with
JESUS,
who I made the CHOICE to say YES to,
because that is what GOD has always
WANTED for me.
Oh UN~ENTITLED ENTITLEMENT~
that is why they
"CALL IT GRACE"
(listen to the song below)
