George left the ministry to become a funeral director. He claims that during his ministry he tried to straighten out the Joneses’ marriage and never made any progress. He tried to get Bill off of alcohol and drugs and that proved to be a failure. Now he says when I straighten them out, they stay straight.
George couldn’t do what the Holy Spirit is good at doing. Case in point:
1 Peter 4:3-4
For we have spent enough of our past lifetime in doing the will of the Gentiles—when we walked in lewdness, lusts, drunkenness, revelries, drinking parties, and abominable idolatries. In regard to these, they think it strange that you do not run with them in the same flood of dissipation, speaking evil of you.
Do you desire to be straightened out? There is a Great Physician that has a 100% success rate for the willing.
When Jesus heard it, He said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”
If you need the Great Physician, His office is always open, plus He makes house calls.
Give it some thought.
