I had never thought of our lives in such a way as the book puts it.
"Though you are an earthen vessel, I designed you to be filled with heavenly contents."
We are not designed to hold on to the garbage this world kindly offers us. It makes sense why when we hold on to the things (I suppose we could just label the things=SIN) that we're not programmed to that we malfunction. In the past I've tried to operate in a web of lies... didn't work out so great for me. It wasn't until my balancing act failed and I finally turned to God to pick up all my pieces and put them back the way He intended. It was a painful process, but definitely necessary. I've learned from my past and it's made me who I am. It has also allowed God opportunities to work in my life and show me His grace.
By trusting God rather than ourselves for the daily strength we need, we not only have more peace but we are also filling our lives with heavenly content which will ensure we function properly.
Thank you God that your grace and strength is abundant enough for me.
I was sitting behind a Jeep at the stoplight today and their spare tire cover had the "Life is Good" logo on it. A still small voice in me agreed that Life is Good, but as a Christian we can claim that Death is Better.
