What Happened Wuz...
Jesus paid a visit to a certain young man to see if he completed some tasks
that Jesus asked him to do. Here are the man's replies to the Master.
"Well Lord, I meant to go to Bible study, but what happened wuz that I was
tired and worn out from the day..."
"Lord I know I promised to read from the Bible last night, but I was
watching TV, and then I fell asleep...."
"Well you know Lord, I didn't mean to hurt her feelings, but you know what
happen wuz that she wasn't what I thought she would be..."
"Well Lord, about the conversation with the non-believer, I'm sorry for not
defending you but what happened wuz that I really didn't know what to
say..."
"Lord, I meant to go to Church today, but what happened wuz that by the time
I woke up it was already too late..."
So then the Lord, finally heard enough! The Lord simply asked him to stop.
Silence entered the room. And as this man wonders why his life is in the
shape it is in, the Lord replied to the man with the following:
"Remember the time when you had to face a force greater than you,and you
were not sure how to handle the situation? Well son, I made provisions at
the Bible study the night before but see what happened wuz you were too
tired to receive the plan I had for you.
I even tried to reveal it to you in my word, but what happened wuz that, you
fell asleep watching TV.
Or better yet. Do you remember the time you were so lonely and just wanted
someone who would love you? I gave you your desire but what happened wuz
that she wasn't good enough for you because she didn't give you what you
wanted. So now I ask, was it love you were after or lust?
And finally I give you a chance to redeem yourself but you failed me again.
This non-believer was placed on hold because you were too weak in me.
The message I sent to the Church on the Sunday you missed would have won you
over the non-believer, but what happened wuz that you slept over so you
couldn't make it to Church."
Let us learn from this young man. You never know the form or fashion that
your blessing may be delivered to you. When opportunity presents itself, you
should always position yourself to receive him. Many of us have too many
excuses for why we can't do this or that. Be aware that the Lord is watching
and hears all excuses. Just remember that he won't be accepting excuses when
it comes time for the judgment !
