Good Morning! 1Peter 1:13 Therefore, prepare your minds for action; be self-controlled; set your HOPE FULLY on the GRACE to be given you when Jesus Christ is revealed. I just want to say, OUR GOD IS AMAZING! It wasn't but at the beginning of this week that I was whining and crying about wanting this and my life was a mess. And how in just a few short days, between Gods word and the help of the Spirit and you my Brothers and Sisters in Christ my whole outlook is changed. In this Vs it says, prepare your mind for action. Well let me tell you (cause it just happened to me) our minds are where our outlook on life are developed. On a daily basis we have the capacity to HOPE and to BELIEVE how our day is going to be. Now it may not always turn out great, but that is no reason that we can't have a great day everyday. Something I have learned in the last couple of days is just that. We are just passing through here on our way to Glory! JESUS told us that in this world we will have troubles, we will have trials, we will encounter problems. But we should take heart for He has conquered this world. HOW? By His GRACE that is shown to us by what he did on the Cross! So many of us today live like I was living at the beginning of the week looking at all the sin in my life and being convicted of it. Which is fine! Be Convicted, Repent and Move On! So many of us are Convicted of it, and we choose to stay there and wallow in it. When what we need to do is set, Our Hope Fully on His Grace. In so many places in the Bible God tells us He remembers our sin No More! Or He puts it behind His back! We as Christians need to grab a hold of that concept, and run with it. This week I was downing myself for wanting things. I found out its OK to want things, but I have to look at what for. For the glory of God or the glory of Self! What I am getting at is we have a chance to live each day to its fullest, WHY? Because we have been given Grace! Grace that was given with Love! Because God loves you and me, and He wants to spend eternity with you and me in Heaven forever. Now if that doesn't give you HOPE, and a better out look on life, I don't know what to tell you. So today put you Hope Fully in the Grace that has already been given to us, and the Grace that we will also receive on that great day when Christ is revealed to us. But remember He is revealed to us today in our hearts by the Spirit, so share that with someone today and HABD!
