God could be selfish!

God calls you, but you say: No, thanks, I'm good. I have everything that I need, I have the life that I always wanted. I don't need you.

And God says, Ok, I'm not gonna insist. But if you, someday, change your mind, I'm right here, ready for you.

And one day, something really bad happens to you, and you are about to die, and you say:
God, please, help me, I don't wanna die now.

And then God will either save you from the earthly death or eternal death, either way you are gonna be saved.

But think a little about the title of this post.
God could be selfish, and say no, I'm not going to save you,
I called you years ago, or months ago, and you said to me:
"I'm good, I have everything that I need, I have the life that I always wanted, I don't need you,"
so, I'm not gonna save you.

You can say that if God did that, He was being really mean. But think at His point of view.
You saidbad things about Him. You hated Him. He was just trying to help you, and you treated Him like if He was committed to destroy you at all cost, and now you want Him to help you, He had all the right to say no to you, and even laugh at your face, take a snack, sit down and watch you die.

But thankfully, that is not what He does, because all He wants to do, is to save you, because He knows that without Him, you are nothing. we are nothing. So, if you were dying and asked Him to save you, He would say to you:
"Of course I'll save you, I love you, and all I always wanted was for you to ask me that, and now that you did it, I am so happy. My life is so much happier now that you have accepted me.
And now you're gonna be so much happier as well, because I have the whole world to show and give to you."

So, the next time God calls you and you think about say no, just take a minute to think about all the time that He could be mean, selfish with you because you desarved, and instead, He was good, generous and really amazing with you.

Thanks God because You don't treat us like we deserved!
