As most all of us know from personal experience – even after we know the truth about God’s love – we’re still capable of doing many things that just aren’t right.
This is why we simply have to avoid at all cost – allowing grace to become an excuse to do whatever it is we want.
The truth is – living according to our flesh will cause us to be miserable, simply because – as Believers, it stirs up that inner conflict we have when we steer the wrong way. We know and understand that we’re at constant war with our flesh, and yes, because of this truth – we must daily die to “self”.
We must destroy our old nature, for yes, we understand that it’s the barrier to our own happiness.
We understand that death to self – it’s not a painful sacrifice, but pure freedom from a life of misery. It’s not loss, it’s total gain, It’s in finding that happiness on the other end of this process that opens our eyes to the truth that Jesus Himself proclaimed, and that Paul described so well.
We’ll find that it’s in this that allows our spirits to thrive – it’s when we temper the destruction of our own flesh that the blessed fruit of the Spirit, which yes, includes pure joy – is totally released.
And yes, that joy is the key – to moving through life with the desire to love others as He Himself loves us.
Y’all if we’ve done anything to cause a hurt feeling or make someone feel alone – we have to move on it. We have reach out and let that person know they are loved.
Bottom line – we have to get over our “selves” on a regular basis.
We are loved by love Himself. He loves us big and He loves us strong, and yes – love wins period
“Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses”
