God sees you as right in His righteousness even when you do wrong-see yourself as God sees you...if not, pride will convince you to make yourself right, but you only feel more wrong (Rom 10:3). God corrects you to make you right...not wrong. Take your sin to Him so it loses its power in you. What you keep from Him…keeps its power. Working harder won't make you feel right-it will only frustrate you & leads to you returning to the former behaviors you despise in yourself...only God's love makes you right. He's the Vine & you're the branch, if you remain in Him & He in you-you will bear much fruit...apart from Him you can do nothing (Jn 15:5). Your plans are in vain until you know how much God loves & approves of you. Will you lay down your plans to make yourself right in God's eyes & receive His love & approval of you? His love makes you right! 9/19/13LMM #godseesyouasright #christianinsightforlife
Shining God's truth across the world (Mt 5:16). When we lay down who we think we should be...we make room to become who God says we can be-His masterpiece to do the good works He planned long ago (Eph 2:10).
