The Day is Done

Grace, freedom, and truth. By themselves they are great, but when describing a Man... wow! The more I think about Jesus, the more I feel free to worship Him however I want. Pastor Pete talked about reckless worship a few Sundays ago. I'm not quite reckless, but it's definately a stretch from singing hymns in a catholic church. I want to praise my Savior. Not only did He give His life for mine, He is now living His life through mine. How can He, you ask. Quite easily, when you think about it, but it is a power struggle. When I lay my life at His feet, He's living my life for me. I've been reading a book by Max Lucado called "Traveling Light: Releasing the Burdens You Were Never Intended to Bear." Great reading, if you're interested. I've always tried to lay my worries at His feet, but now that I know that I was never intended to bear them, it's no sweat to let Him. You've probably heard the saying "Let Go. Let God." If you can't bear it, He created us, He loved us, and He called us to freedom. What He says now is shocking! John 8:36- "If the Son sets you free, you shall be free indeed." Guess what! You can not be made perfect by the law. What's this crazy talk Nat? If it were possible to be made perfect by the law then Jesus died for nothing. He is awesome! Here is another piece of information. John 3:16- "For God so loved the world, He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life." Jesus desires a relationship with you, more than He wants you to be a good person. We were all made with a desire to be loved. Every single one of us. Guess who loves you recklessly? So much in fact He would rather die for you, than not have you for eternity. Ok... ponder this thought and if you need more I'll see what God has in store for tomorrow night.
Jesus loves me and you, and you, and you, and you, and you, ...
Good night! May Jesus our Lord and Savior grant you a desire for Him, and sweet dreams of eternity.

Phillipians 1:6- For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.
