Doubting - your salvation? Jesus as Messiah? John 11:4-6

Good morning!  God is good all the time, all the time God is good. TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!  Did you get up this morning and say "good Lord its morning" OR "GOOD MORNING LORD!"
    Yesterday I shared about needs and wants and being able to share.  If you travel on in John to the 11th chapter, John begins to doubt Jesus as the Messiah.  John had been put in prison by Herod, but why?  Herod married his own sister-in-law and John publicly rebuked Herod's sin.  So, John is sitting in prison, lots of time on his hands, lots of time to think, and a great time for satan to cast doubt at someone, namely John.
    The doubt comes when John thinks if Jesus is really the Messiah, then why am I in prison and not out preaching and teaching others about Jesus?  If Jesus were really the Messiah, then he could get me released and I could prepare more hearts for eternity.  As they say today - what's up with that?!?
    John 11:4-6  "Jesus told them, 'Go back to John and tell him what you have heard and seen-the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cured, the deaf hear, the dead are raised to life, and the Good News is being preached to the poor.  And tell him, God blesses those who do not turn away because of me.'"
   Jesus answered John's doubts by pointing to the acts he had done.  With this much evidence it was obvious who Jesus was.  You and I will have doubts, doubts about our salvation -- am I really saved?  Well, when those doubts creep in -- remember -- don't turn away from Christ, but TURN TO JESUS!!
   Satan is the master of doubt, 
    but Jesus has the clout, 
    let us not turn about, 
    but LORD help us to stay stout.
Love you all. In Christ's Love and Grace
