Not Just Desire

   With more age comes more privileges. However with more privileges comes more responsibility. For example, with a car, a privilege, comes the responsibility to now put gas into this car and pay insurance on this car and check the oil and transmission and such, however, you can now willing get from point A to point B.
   So let us continue to use the car as the example. You drive your call all week. Your oil is in great condition and everything about your car is working fine. Yet, it is now the end of the week and it is time for you to put some more gas in that vehicle.
   So here is the thing, no matter how much of a desire or want that I have for gas to be in that car, gas will not be in that car unless someone puts gas into that car. I can not simply wish for it and it be there, no matter how hard i clinch my fist and close my eyes, it simply does not come from my desires.
   Salvation is the exact same way. One cannot just wish themselves saved. They cannot wish themselves as a good person and one that will go to Heaven when this life is over. NO! Salvation only comes through Christ Jesus, accepting Him as your Lord and Savior over your life. That is the only way. You cannot wish yourself saved, salvation is only through Christ, and salvation is here!!
