I was a dupe of sin. I missed God’s goal for my life and needed to be delivered from the grip of that vicious cycle.
I was stubborn, refusing to believe Jesus. I went around with a chip on my shoulder. But this is the season of reminder. God, my kind and loving Savior God, stepped in.
Jesus saved me from a life of hatred. He saved me from a life of selfishness. He stepped right in!!
It was completely His doing. I had absolutely nothing to do with it. He gave me a good bath and I came out a totally clean man. I was washed on the inside. I was washed on the outside. Clean inside and out!!
My Savior Jesus poured out a whole new life for me. It is a generous life. It is a gift of right relationship with my Father. He has given me back my life. AND, woo hoo, there is more to come. An eternity of the glorious life. I can count on it. If is a fact Jack!!
So … I am putting my foot down. I really am. I am taking a firm stand on all of this.
- I am putting my trust in God and concentrating on the essentials that are good for me.
- I am staying completely away from mindless issues and the fine print. It gets me nowhere.
- I am radically trusting in Jesus. The HOLY Spirit that raised Him from the dead is in me. And with me.
I am putting my foot down.
Lord, we are thankful that You stepped in with generosity for us all. Keep doing what You are doing Lord!

Sin is irrational. Oh how gracious God is with us…
