Wow. "The state of your mind is the course of your life." I just read that in my Sabbath School lesson this morning. That really made me think about how Paul presents our struggle against sin. He presents it as a Greek boxing match, and, in those matches, they used hide gloves with BRASS KNUCKLES. Ouch!
Now, most of you know, I avoid pain at all costs. I don't like being uncomfortable, whether it be physically or mentally. Is that why I'm not living the abundant life Jesus promised me? Am I too afraid to be uncomfortable for God?
Lord, take my fears away from me. Make me be like your Son, Jesus Christ, ready to do anything for others, no matter the cost. Amen.
