Come!!!

She stood in the doorway calling out to her children to come in out of the rain. After awhile with much pleading they were all in the safety of their home. It was then that mother said to them in the form of a question, "don't you have enough sense to come in out of a storm?" The children replied, "but mother, we were having so much fun and didn't want to stop."

They stood in the doorways of life calling to the people to come in out of the storm. They pleaded, begged, reasoned, prayed, and tried to persuade, but all to no avail. The people just wouldn't listen for they were having so much fun. Then the prophets wept over the people, for they would not listen, hear, or respond. They didn't believe they could lose their own soul by trying to gain the whole world, and after all "everyone was doing it." The allure and temptations of the world are real and powerful, ever enticing and snaring soul after soul. So the prophets cried out and will continue to cry out for the people to turn their backs on the world's so called joys and pleasures and come to the the Father's house - to come in out of the storm. Safe from the traps and snares and allurements, realizing that the world's glitter isn't the gold and silver of God's Kingdom. Are you in the storm? Come to the Father's house and you'll be safe and secure. Come for the Spirit beckons you. Come!!!
