Today is a beautiful new day in Christ. The weather forecast for the committed Christian is always brilliant sunshine in the light of the perfect love of Jesus.
I will post my accountability information at the bottom of this post. First, I want to share some scripture to put some boost in your spiritual rocket engines. Whatever sin strongholds you are turning over to Jesus today....you can do it in HIS strength. Remember, the Holy Spirit does the heavy lifting (praise God)!
"Then Jesus said, 'Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.'" (Matthew 11:28-30, NLT)
Read all of Psalm 34 today. Here are some choice verses from that Psalm that remind us that freedom in Christ is possible! "Those who look to him for help will be radiant with joy; no shadow of shame will darken their faces. In my desperation I prayed, and the Lord listened; he saved me from all my troubles." (v. 6) "I will boast only in the Lord; let all who are helpless take heart. Come, let us tell of the Lord's greatness; let us exalt his name together." (v. 2-3) "Even strong young lions sometimes go hungry, but those who trust in the Lord will lack no good thing." (v. 10)
I am happy to report that I stayed within calorie and saturated fat gram limits yesterday and got a few things accomplished. I went to ladies' biblestudy at church. I got a power walk in. I worked a tiny bit on my beautiful "Blueberry Bears" rug. I picked up some special dog food at the vet's office for the world's most beloved (and expensive) dachshund. I did two pages of my Yosemite scrapbook. Today will be even more productive.
Enjoy your freedom today! Don't squander it. Don't let the devil snatch it from you.
