Don't Shut God Out




        Have been thinking about an email I got earlier today from someone a world away from where I live.  He related some of the experiences that led him to become an atheist.

        How sad. But what I want to say to anyone else out there who feels this way, don't shut God out of your life.  You are His child, whether or not you realize it -- a divine fact you can't get away from.  And He has so much good to bestow on you, if you will just open your life up to Him. One may even feel life at present is wonderful without God in it.  This won't last.  It can't. How much infinitely more so it would be with God in it.

        The broad path Jesus warns against has for the traveler fewer and fewer flowers as he walks in it until the landscape becomes very bleak indeed.

        So, don't shut your loving heavenly Father out of your life.  Return to Him a fraction of the oceans of love He feels for you, and you will wonder why you were ever content to live estranged from Him.  Trust me, a world of good awaits you.
