ROMANS 14:8 (New King James Version)
For if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord's.
Live the life The Lord has for you.
A New Creation
The Lord has a new life he want's us to have. He wants us to have it now. He wants us the way we are. With this new life all sins will be forgottn and everything old will become new.
Why wait?
Why do wait to accept this life? Whether it's because we are wanting to change first, quit a particular sin, or we are just not ready, The Lord Jesus Christ wants to take our burdens and help us through whatever obstacles are in our way. He can create a new you...
2 Corinthians 5:17 (NKJV)
17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.
With this new life, there will still be sin, temptations, and we will all fall short but The Lord will give us strength and guidance to continue our growth as Christians.
We get stressed and mad when life does not meet our expectations of what is or was supposed to happen. We continue to try and force the life we think we want and end up more stressed, and further from the person we are meant to be. We lose love for ourselves and in the process lose love for others. God's plan may not be the same as ours but his plan is what is best and what will direct us to victory.
