The death of you is not the end of you; it’s the beginning. When Jesus is asking us to die to ourselves, He is asking us to lay down our way of doing things for His way, our way of responding to things, for His way. He’s asking us to put down our imperfect way of seeing things for His perfect kingdom perspective. Although it’s difficult at times, we must remember we have a good Father who promises that He will not withhold anything good from us as we walk upright. We can trust if He is asking us to lay our old life down, He has something better in store for us.
“Our bodies are buried in brokenness, but they will be raised in glory. They are buried in weakness, but they will be raised in strength” 1 Corinthians 15:43, NLT.
“My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the LORD. “And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine.” Isaiah 55:8
Prayer: Papa, thank you for always having our best interest at heart. Forgive us for the times we leaned on our own understanding instead of trusting your perfect plan. Help us to surrender to your way. Teach us daily how to do life in step with Holy Spirit. Empower us daily to grow in grace. Thank you, Papa, for being a good good Father. Thank you for giving us the courage to lay down the old way to receive the new. Help us press past the resistance from our flesh and submit totally to you so we can go the distance with you, trusting and obeying you even when it’s difficult. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
