The Conscience As an Alert System - Part 2

There's never been a time in modern history when mankind's survival was not an issue. Initially, Adam and Eve did not worry about survival, but their utopia ended with a careless choice. Although they were expelled from the garden, God did not cut them off from his love and protection. No, he still loved and cared for them and made sure they survived.

Have you given thanks to God for your survival, for your blessings? We work and pay taxes so others can have food, clothing, and shelter. We give away clothes that are longer in fashion and support programs to help people all over the world. Generosity is possible because we're so blessed and do not struggle to survive physically.

However, survival is a multi-faceted issue. Because we're complex, fragile, and sensitive, we often strive to survive emotionally, spiritually, and mentally. As God loved and cared for Adam and Eve, he loves and cares for you. So invite Jesus to fill you with his presence. This is a wonderful, healthy choice for survival. So give thanks to God.
