Seek His heart

Stop what you’re doing right now and say to yourself...I will never beat myself up again for past mistakes. He has forgiven me! Never again will I allow someone to let me question who I am in Christ. Never again will I let someone reject me and then dwell on it, for He did not come to bring peace, but a sword. He came to set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; a man’s enemies will be the members of his household.(Mathew 10:34-36) When you asked Jesus to come into your heart, did you buy into the lie that being a Christian was going to be easy? This weekend a wonderful Christian comedian told us that being saved is like never again driving a car that breaks down all the time, leaving us on the side of the road….the car still breaks down, but NOW we’re married to a mechanic AND we have AAA!!!

Try saying this to yourself: NEVER AGAIN will I represent myself as a fake, shining smile that must pretend that everything is peachy and perfect. I will not be act like a victim, but better a triumphant (possibly wounded) soldier of Christ! I AM NO victim! I can do ALL things through Christ, who strengthens me! (Philippians 4:13) I will still face tragedy, I will still feel disappointment, I will still have “those” days, but because I have a personal and meaningful relationship with Jesus Christ, I CAN overcome and I will!” AND THEN: Keep your chin up, WITNESS at all times, and if you have to open your mouth! Be that light for others, that example that says: I am His, He adores me, when I make a mess or draw an ugly picture, He STILL hangs it on His refrigerator J
