I\u2019ve really missed you guys! It\u2019s been a whirlwind for the last year. Time seems to be speeding up and before you know it, days, weeks and months have gone by. I hope you\u2019re well in all that you\u2019re doing (feel free to let me know in the comments). I\u2019m glad to be back giving you encouragement and hopefully, some direction, hope, and a few laughs on your walk in Christ. That\u2019s precisely the reason I\u2019m writing this post now, to encourage and empower you on your way. A couple of days ago, I visited with an old friend and she began telling me about her recent decision to cultivate her relationship with Christ! I was ecstatic for her! And my excitement was then tied to a balloon and anchored to the ground as she began speaking on her assumption of what that big moment would look like versus the reality. She was confused at how \u201cunchanged\u201d she felt and our conversation is the inspiration for this post. Just in case someone out there feels the same as my friend, I\u2019m here to share with you a few reality checks when it comes to living a life in Christ.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Why do I feel the same?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When we think of \u201cgetting saved\u201d most of us, tend to think of being drawn to the altar at the end of service to give our life over to God. While surrounded by clergy, family, and friends with tears in your eyes and hugs to spare, you\u2019ll be miraculously changed into a sparkling, shiny, and righteous being before you leave the building.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0While there is surrender, instantaneous change isn\u2019t a part of the plan. You don\u2019t change immediately after choosing to follow Christ. You\u2019ll still have the same issues, temptations, difficulties, and worries you had moments before your decision; but don\u2019t think of that as a sign that your salvation isn\u2019t active. This is a major concern for those new in Christ because we know that He washes our sins away, aligning us with the Father but we tend to think that He will numb us from the temptation of sin or that He\u2019ll put up a wall blocking us from doing what we want and if we feel any slight attraction toward anything sinful, we\u2019re hellbound and unclean.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Christ, the temptations and habits that we participate in have now become an enemy to our closeness with Him and we must make a choice every. single. time. Do we do what we want or what He would want for us? This is where we\u2019ll discover change occurring in us through the Holy Ghost. The longer we spend in Christ, the more we are able to recognize how much our choices impact our relationship with God, ourselves, and each other. As time passes you\u2019ll see how the change you once questioned at the beginning is now evident. True change occurs over time and using your free will to choose Him develops your trust and shapes your heart to adopt the mind of Christ. <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don\u2019t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God\u2019s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.<\/p>\n<p><cite>Romans 12:2 ESV<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\">Despite feeling the same, your decision is proof of a change that\u2019s happening within you and it will continue to grow. After all of this, what am I saying? Simply this: <\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Don\u2019t worry about quitting every sin immediately, that\u2019s for the Holy Spirit to help you resolve. If you could do it with your own willpower, you wouldn\u2019t need God.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">WE ALL NEED GOD.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Not having an overwhelming emotional response to receiving salvation doesn\u2019t mean it didn\u2019t happen, that you\u2019re faulty or it isn\u2019t legit.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Sin will always be present and you will fall to it throughout life, but you don\u2019t have to be a slave to it. <\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Christianity isn\u2019t about avoiding sin, it\u2019s striving to maintain closeness in Christ knowing you have a savior.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Being a Christian has nothing to do with immunity from pain, difficulty, or temptation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">You\u2019re doing great, but if you believe you could do better, go for it!<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most importantly: <strong>\u201c<sup>\u00a0<\/sup>because, if\u00a0you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and\u00a0believe in your heart\u00a0that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.\u201d <\/strong>Romans 10:9 ESV<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\">Grow in grace and stay in God. This is just the beginning!<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"\/>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. \u201d John 3:16 Hey, Ya\u2019ll!
