Even though you are a Christian, do you find yourself constantly feeling
unworthy and undeserving of God's blessings? Have you ever wondered why some
people move toward a higher spiritual plane while you never move ahead?
I've been thinking that one of the reasons we might be feeling inadequate is
because we fail to understand that when we come to Christ in obedient faith,
He forgives us and sets us free. The New Testament is filled with stories
about how Jesus gave a fresh, new start to individuals who had responded to
Him. Remember it was Jesus who said in John 8:11, "Then neither do I condemn
you. Go now and leave your life of sin."
Although He has forgiven us, sometimes we fail to renew our minds as it
states in Romans 12:2. We may need to change our way of thinking as we shed
the ideas of the "old man" and become the "new man" that Christ intends for
us to be.
On Sunday mornings this next quarter our adult classes continue in the
Servanthood study with God's Servant is a Steward. As Christians we
understand that everything we have and everything we are is from God and
belongs to Him, but how do we live the lifestyle of a good and faithful
steward? Christian stewardship is a way of life that doesn't come easily or
naturally. If you are not in the habit of attending Bible Class on Sunday
morning, this next Sunday would be a great time to begin as we start our new
quarter of studies.
See you in Bible Class!
Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be
transformed by the renewing of your mind. ~~Romans 12:2
