“The thief comes only to steaI, and kill, and destroy; I came that they might have life, and might have it abundantly. “ John 10:10
Hallelujah!! This is so good! Sadly, so many think it’s the other way around. They think God and Christianity take away our life and take away our fun. That’s a LIE!!! True relationship with God is exciting, adventurous, fun and abundantly fulfilling. If you’re not experiencing that abundant life that Christ offers, then you’re probably believing lies about God. Satan is of course the Father of LIes so he loves to facilitate us believing these lies.
Life with Christ is not boring. It is what we were created for. Therefore, when truly walking with Him we can experience true freedom. Freedom from fear and anxiety. Freedom from insecurity and what people think of us. Freedom from addictions and seeking things that don’t satisfy. Freedom from fear of present things and things in the future. Freedom from hardness of heart and numbness. When we don’t experience these things, it’s not because God doesn’t want to give them to us, but because we choose to believe lies about ourselves and about God. Sad. That breaks my heart and so I know it breaks God’s as well.
Father, help me to see you for who you really are. Help me to remember that you are not angry at me, that you delight in me. Help me remember that you are pleased with me even when I’m not pleased with myself. Thank you that you fight me for me and desire for me to live in the Promised Land. Thank you that you have a plan and use all things for God.
