Brothers and sisters, one of the main reasons why so many professing Christians have little confidence with God and little boldness with men is that their lives are not devoted in love to the salvation of the lost and to the glory of God, but instead are devoted (often by sheer default) to providing earthly security and comfort for themselves and their families.
Oh God if only I can just say this to my students and if only they can hear and believe!
If only you can show us how idolatrous our foregrounding of secular security is... If you would remove the mask of sin that says it to be 'responsibility'.
No, if we do not put you first, I fear we have become most irresponsible with our loved ones.
