Thought for the day
As a Christian we need to understand that our identity comes from being a beloved child of God with full inheritance rights to His kingdom. We need to reflect and meditate on that, for as long as it takes for us to have our minds renewed by this awesome and indescribable gift. It’s not enough to get this intellectually. It is a matter of the heart and must permeate every aspect of life.
It takes time meditating on the Word and spending time with the Living Word to get there. Once we get there, we realize that we’ve been given the greatest and most meaningful gift and reality imaginable. The Work has already been done by Christ, so the most logical thing to do is to bring all we are and all we have to the altar before God, not because He needs it, but because we can’t help but be overcome by gratitude. It should consume every fibre of our being.
To put it plainly, everything else fits abundantly into place when our identity is fixed on who we are as sanctified or set apart for Jesus Christ.
