God will give you the desires of your Heart
Romans 1:18-32
For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness
that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: "The righteous
will live by faith."
The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the
godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their
wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God
has made it plain to them.
For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his
eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood
from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.
For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave
thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts
were darkened.
Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the
glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds
and animals and reptiles.
Therefore God gave them over in the sinful
desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their
bodies with one another.
They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served
created things rather than the Creator--who is forever praised. Amen.
Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women
exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones.
In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and
were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with
other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.
Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the
knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not
to be done.
They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and
depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They
are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they
invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; they are senseless,
faithless, heartless, ruthless.
Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things
deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also
approve of those who practice them.
Psalms 37:4
Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the
desires of your
heart.
The Wicked
will continue to be Wicked
I cannot help Myself
If your Brother Repents,
Forgive Him
Forgiveness is as much for the Abuser as it is for the
Abused
The Abused can become Abusers if they Don't Forgive
Forgive or you won't be Forgiven
You are possessed by the one you Love
God will Give you the desires of your heart
