Sometimes relationships reach a crisis where one person in a relationship has to intervene to help protect others in the relationship. In my relationship with GOD (it’s always me who gets off track–GOD can be trusted to stay on the straight and narrow path, HE’s just that way!), GOD will step in to save me from myself. HE will speak softly, encourage, and tug, and T . H . E . N, HE will shout, hit me with a 2 by 4 and threaten me. You might think HE is being mean, but HE is not. In fact, I am thankful when HE threatens. It seems to wake me up to the seriousness of the path I am on, or not on. It let’s me know how much HE loves me that HE cares enough to step in. I even apologize to HIM that HE has to do it, but again, I am thankful. After the wake up call and I get back on track then I realize how much I love HIM and how much I have missed in our relationship. Thank you GOD for caring!
