What would we be without God? What would you be without Him? What would I be without Him? This is a question everyone can and should answer sometime in their lives, however, it is a question only I can answer for myself and one only you could answer for yourself. It is so hard to explain the rush of amazement that ocurrs when one realizes; really realizes, who one would be when God is taken out of the picture. Think about this, when we feel alone, we really would be, when we needed help, no one would step up to the plate. Who would give us guidance? Most importantly, if God was not there, no one would have been willing to die for our sins and no one would have been strong enough to overcome, not only temptation, but also death itself!
When God is taken out of the picture who would be the reason not to sin? Any morality that the world has left in it would be tossed out the window. Who would hold us accountable? No one.
So what would we be without God? Generally we would be thoughtless and alone in our sins..what about individually? What weaknesses do you have? What power would give you strength to go on in tough times? We are alone....humans only care so much, without the compassion for our neighbor that God showed us, we really wouldn't care what happened to those around us. So without God we would in one simple word be 'lost'. Please think about this: who would you be without the knowledge that God is there with you?
This question (which I hope you examined and thought about) leads to two points: A: God is there! (yay r?!) And we are *not* alone..He is forgiving and loving and wants us to honor Him...we have to realize and face who we would be without Him to realize who we are and how changed we are with Him. How much of an impact He makes in our lives is truly eye opening to the to the fact of how much we really need Him. It is because of Him that we have the ability to be saved!
Great post, especially the conclusion :)
