Changes

God uses change to bring out a deeper faith and understanding of His purpose for a believer’s life. I pray these words inspire you, as our world needs God more than ever. When a believer is given the gift of salvation, the intent is to change a person’s destiny from death to life (Romans 10:9-10). Jesus paid this price on a cross a long time ago! Upon acceptance of the change, “old things are passed away, and all things become as new.” You are no longer the person you use to be, but you have new perspective, ideals, determination, and hope. All of these are based on you wanting to look like the Christ you have accepted into your life. Your mind is renewed, you are loved, you feel loved and therefore you show love wherever you go! (2 Corinthians 5:17)

Saints, as we grow in Christ from death to life, accepting the change God gives as a gift to a believer, let us show that change in the grocery stores, hallways at school, on the job, and in our church’s. Our world needs to see it because love is not what is happening. People are illustrating more hate, than love and we don’t need that in our universe. But, all things “change” when we call on the name of Jesus. Pray with me, “God fix us as we need to see change in the universe. Let it begin with us. Lest we forget your grace shown to us freely, do not allow us to become or practice the same hatred shown to us on a daily basis. Come Lord, and incline our nation to humble before you and emulate the love Jesus Christ showed us on the cross when he died for our sins! In the matchless name of Jesus Christ we pray, Amen!
