One day when I was at a prayer meeting at a friend's house... God used a cat to help me understand his heart.
You see... my friend has 2 cats. And I'm just so in love with them.
I just love petting them and stroking them and making silly noises... meowing and purring at them... as I try to communicate to them.
Even though I have cat allergies.
It doesn't stop me from petting them.
Because I love cats.
I love cats because it reminds me of the days when I was a child...
I came from an abusive home...
And also, the kids in school bullied me.
And it was the cats who came to me to comfort me everytime I cried outside the house in the dark... feeling alone and desperate.
The cats would meow and purr... and show me LOVE. After my parents beat me up or after I got bullied by the other kids...
This is why I have a soft spot for cats.
So... during an intense prayer session when I got so filled with the fire of the Holy Ghost and I ended up weeping face down to the floor... because of the sheer intensity of the spiritual force / chi / chakra / energy of God... that is on such a high level spiritual frequency... of love...
my friend's cats came to me... with affectionate meows and purrs...
Then I started to pet them.
And then the word of the Lord came unto me and asked me...
"Why do you love these cats even though you're allergic to them?"
"Lord, because I am reminded of how cats showed me love and comfort when I was a child in an abusive home... I love them so much, Lord..."
"Now son... how do YOU think I feel when 7 billion people choose to forsake me and cling to their idols? How do you think I have felt when YOU would still doubt me from time to time?"
And then I couldn't say anything... I ended up just tearing up some more and saying sorry to God for all my sins... as they all flashed in my head...
All the times I was a videogame addict...
All the times I was a porno watcher and whore monger...
And most especially... the time when I flipped God the finger and cussed Him out and screamed "YOU DON'T EXIST, GOD!!! IF YOU EXIST, WHY ARE YOU ALLOWING ME TO BE TORMENTED BY MY PARENTS AND THE OTHER KIDS?!? I DON'T DESERVE THAT!!!"
And I wept...
And I wept...
some more...
and then God told me... "You love to pet and hug cats even though you're allergic to them. You love to pet and hug cats even though they cause you pain... How do you think I felt on that cross? How do you think I feel everyday when every human past and present... forsakes me and chooses to sin and makes their bodies a temple of the demonic realm? You love cats so much... but what about the one who created them? Who do you think commanded those cats to comfort you?"
And the realization came unto me...
That my love for the cats... is NOT EVEN A DROP IN THE BUCKET... of the love of God for humanity.
Because humans have caused God pain through all this time...
With all the hate and violence...
With all the sexual perversions...
With all their self-righteous man-made religions and ideologies...
God is sad for you, friend.
He is sad everytime He sees you sin...
Everytime you choose to watch porno and indulge in your sexual perversions...
Everytime you choose to watch violent secular movies filled with ideologies of devils...
Everytime you choose to play videogames... or any other idolatry Satan has to offer?
Everytime you choose to hate others and be unforgiving...
God is sad for you, friend.
And now you know He is sad...
Will you continue to make Him sad by continuing in your wicked ways?
I mean come on... really bro / sis?
You gonna keep making sad... the one who died on that cross for you?!?
Really?!?
You STILL gonna keep worshipping the devil either directly or indirectly through your sins?!?
You STILL gonna choose to make your body a temple of Satan?
Or will you be a temple of the Holy Spirit...
and allow God to heal you...
with his Holy fire... (Hebrews 12:29) (Deuteronomy 4:24)
At the end of the day...
The choice is YOURS.
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
(2 Peter 3:9)
For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.
(Ezekiel 18:32)
Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord GOD: and not that he should return from his ways, and live?
(Ezekiel 18:23)
This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
(1 Timothy 2:3-4)
