For thus says the Lord, Behold, I will make you a terror to yourself, and to all your friends...Jeremiah 20:4
It's never a good thing when God's your enemy. And it's even worse when your enemy (God) makes you, your worst nightmare!

It's never a good thing when you ignore God's ways and He becomes your enemy. Because the Lord can take it up a notch and make you, your own worst nightmare. You take about misery... 
 You and I can fight it and continue to spiral into the pit or yield to Jesus, confess your sin and rebellion and seek His mercy and forgiveness. He's got more mercy and forgiveness than we could ever need... but it comes at a cost. We come His way, not our own way. Our way put us into to this place... His way can deliver us but He requires that we trust Him, give in, turn from ourselves and doing life our way and acknowledge our ways are corrupt and misleading, and entrust our lives to Jesus, His gospel of grace and His kingdom. And if He chooses to keep us there, we're good with it because He's now in control of our lives, trust and hope and we believe He knows best. It's then He replaces the misery with peace... circumstances may not change but He's changed us. Glory!
May this never be you or me!
May we be humble and meek before a holy God today...
