This video was shared with me this past week and really inspired me. It deals with some issues that I have been struggling with and probably what most of us have been struggling with. It can be so easy for us as Christians to pick and choose what is healthy and unhealthy for us in our faith journey.
In this lent season I bring forward some food or thought:
– What in your life is dead weight that you need to get rid of?
– Is that dead weight what you choose or what God chooses?
– What kind of image do you see of yourself?
One of my favorite things brought up in this video is
“child: I let you down so many times God.
God: No my child. You were never holding me up. I hold you up in my victorious right hand, never the other way around. In this relationship I hold you up.”
It is so easy to make the excuse of not giving your all to God because you may feel inadequate or that you will always let God down. Remember that God will always hold you up. This lent season I encourage you to allow God to chisel away the negative, sinful influences in your life as I will let Him for mine. Always remember that YOU are a child of God and that he holds you in his hands.
You are a child created by God. You are His original masterpiece!!
