Matthew 22:32
God isn't the God of the dead, but of the living.
Some struggle with “what was”. Others struggle
with “what’s to come”. Their focus is constantly on what they have done
or would have done. In these cases that person is just living, and never really
gets to be alive. Christ came to put the past to bed. He came to handle
the affairs of your future. Worry never fixes what GOD has already
planned. The past is done. Those who have betrayed you and those you have
betrayed are a part of the story leading to salvation. In other words,
they are just a piece of the story that makes up your testimony. They are you
life’s lesson. To think of them in any other way or to dwell on them in
hopes to see how you would have changed anything is counterproductive. That old
relationship or any expired experience is gone. Commit to being alive.
Commit to Christ and leave everything at his feet. Connect your heart to his
and listen for the direction and assignment he places in your heart.
Do
you really understand what it is to be alive? If you did there wouldn’t be a
person who has had contact with you who wouldn’t know also! Don’t just
live, become alive. Become reborn, renewed, breathing, walking and living in
Christ. Some people are just moving through life. I compare it to the
movie “Weekend at Bernie’s”. Two guys are walking this dead man’s body
around trying to keep up appearances. Likewise, your body may move, and
you may be moving around, but are you alive? Have you really learned what it is
to breathe, and live spiritually? Do not be fooled or distracted by Satan. Do not accept the lie that you are living, and God is dead. Do not
accept anything less than perfection and life in Christ. Become alive, . .
Alive in Christ.
Be
encouraged
I
love always, and in all ways.
