TOO FAR GONE

I remember the day after I gave my life to Jesus... I was 15, and I messed up—messed up real bad. I remember thinking, "Dang, I must not have done it right, or God didn’t hear me because I wouldn’t have done that if I was really a Christian." It bothered me—bothered me real bad.

There’s this real thing called sin nature. It doesn’t make it okay to sin, but it explains why every one of us will sin at some point. And for a lot of people, they don’t understand why. I’ve walked through addiction of all different kinds with people, and for the most part, none of them wake up and say, “I want to be an addict today...” But there’s this spiritual war taking place.

Paul writes in Romans 7 that he discovered a principle of life: he wants to do what is right, but inevitably does what is wrong... Amen, anyone else feel that pain? I do.

I want to encourage you—you are not too far gone for Jesus. Don’t walk through this life alone; it’s hard enough already. Jesus loves you, and I love you too! Let’s keep fighting the good fight together.
