Leviticus 20:22-24
“‘Keep all my decrees and laws and follow them, so that the land where I am bringing you to live may not vomit you out. You must not live according to the customs of the nations I am going to drive out before you. Because they did all these things, I abhorred them. But I said to you, “You will possess their land; I will give it to you as an inheritance, a land flowing with milk and honey.” I am the Lord your God, who has set you apart from the nations.
God desires obedience. If you don't obey, you get kicked out. I should know this all too well. My sins pushed me away and out of the fellowship. It appears that getting back into the fellowship is going to be harder, much harder than I anticipated. I am trying to be the squeaky wheel that gets the oil, but my efforts seem fruitless thus far. I am not sure what else to do. I want to be restored. I want to do the work. I need to know what I need to know to make my heart changes. It is frustrating.
Galatians 6:1
Brothers and sisters, if someone is caught in a sin, you who live by the Spirit should restore that person gently. But watch yourselves, or you also may be tempted.
Maybe this is part of the gentle process. I feel like I am being tested, which is a good thing. Testing is good.
