Ephesians 4:22-24 (MSG)
"Everything—and I do mean everything—connected with that old way of life has to go. It's rotten through and through. Get rid of it! And then take on an entirely new way of life—a God-fashioned life, a life renewed from the inside and working itself into your conduct as God accurately reproduces his character in you."
I think my life is hard to understand - wake up and thought about how much good I can do for God ... good that will guarantee my greatness. WRONG!
You began your life in Christ by the Spirit, why would I want to complete it by my own power? This is FOOLISH
(Gal 3:3 NCV).
Pastor Andre tells us:
"You are sailing along in the ocean and rowing your boat, lost and alone - cold...
Then a ship appears and it's name was - GRACE sailing constantly in the water and not stopping.
Waving to catch its attention and it took a long while but GRACE notices you and starts to swing around to pick you up. But you bring your boat up to the decks of the GRACE and found it to be a luxury cruise, however you are still in your own boat trying to sail and rowing even thou you are on such a wonderful cruise ship: GRACE"
What are you doing today my brothers and sisters? Will you stop, listen, and simply not just know but encounter the grace that Christ has come into this world to give us.
I am a dumb sheep, I shall not be in want
Let the shepherd our Christ lead us as he does not stop - he keeps on going, it is we who stop, complain - So transform and be changed!
Now our Savior Jesus Christ, speaking of entering the
Kingdom of Heaven said; Indeed there are those
who are last who will be first, and first who
will be last." ( Luke 13:30 ) Also Jesus' brother
wrote; He gives more grace. Therefore He
says: "God resists the proud, But gives
grace to the humble." ( James 4:6 )
