Good evening everyone :) How is your New Year's Eve going??? Mine is going great praise God!! :)
How many of you have seen a Chicken getting slaughtered? It is not a pleasant site :( One thing I want to bring to your attention is how even after the neck is detached the body still struggles. It is like the chicken is saying, "I am not ready to die!" or "no! I am not dying!!" I am talking about struggling even after death because I am reminded of human nature and the relationship we have with sin. Even after getting saved, it is rare to see people who have died to sin completely. Don't get me wrong, there are people who do a 360 right after receiving Christ as their Lord and Saviour.
Challenge of the Week: May be the whole of 2013 you have been struggling with sin that wasn't quiet killed when everything else died. May be there is some part of you still holding on to your old ways. May be you are not willing to let go of some of the worldly desires that captured your heart before Christ did. This new year I challenge you and I to let go! I challenge you and I to trust that He is truly enough for us! I challenge you and I to know that He is who He says He is! He is able to give you peace, fulfilment and Joy more than anything in this world can offer! Let us crossover together!
