 Need equations solved? I’m free this Spring by Lucy Fur Wormwood, A Messenger
You go to church every Sunday. You volunteer at a soup kitchen twice per week. You have a Jesus fish on your Dodge Stratus. Heck, you’re even saving yourself for Mr. Right! So why do things seem to just never go your way? It’s not you, honey. It’s God. He’s just not that into you.
Those 10 pounds you put on last month? Your demotion at Jack n’ the Box? The D+ on your intro to nutrition exam? Proof that God’s just not that into you. Now, the first step in reconciling with this cold, hard fact is not to blame yourself! God is a fickle being. He may not be into your because you used His name in vain that one time last year. Or because you didn’t forward the “101 Ways to Love Jesus” e-mail from your Aunt Betsy to 20 people in 20 minutes.
Let’s just take a minute to look at the facts. God is both omnipotent and omniscient. He hears you, He just chooses not to respond. He can raise someone from the dead, so of course He could have gotten you out of that traffic ticket. How can you commit to someone if they aren’t meeting you halfway?
So for the time being, YOU have to take control of your life! Don’t let God get you down. It’s a waste of YOUR time to sit in church every Sunday, waiting for God to notice you. And stop making excuses for Him! For one, He doesn’t care about ruining your friendship. He also doesn’t care about taking it slow. And He’s most certainly not playing games with you. He’s just not that into you! Move on, sister! YOU are a modern woman and YOU have to EMPOWER YOURSELF!
You can see the kind of people God is into just by flipping through the Bible: Moses, David, Noah. You should face up to it now; you can’t be like these people. First off, you’re probably not Jewish. And secondly, you’re no saint. You were born with original sin. Honey, that’s just the way God made you. You’ll never be up to God’s standards. But you shouldn’t have to be. Don’t work to satisfy His impossible demands, because you know what? You won’t! It’s time to move on. God’s just not that into you? Well now it’s time to not be that in to God. |
