God isn’t done with you yet.
As Pastor Craig Groeschel says, “If you’re not dead... you’re not done.”
Whatever your past... whatever you see in the mirror... whatever the world has defined you to be....
God sees something greater.
He’s created you for something that only you can do.
Have you forgotten what your smile looks like? What hope feels like? What God’s truth for your life is?
“This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!” 2 Corinthians 5:17
This is reality.
Take a closer look at yourself. Not broken you. Not addicted you. Not desperate you. Not financially struggling you.
You. Perfected in the love of Christ. Old life gone... new life begun.
Take today. This Friday. Start over. Start thinking of yourself differently... you aren’t perfect... you’ve made some mistakes... but you are valuable and important in God’s plan for this planet.
Christ came for you.
Christ died for you.
Christ is here for you today.
And as these truths come into focus... as this new picture develops... crumple up the other one. That was you from yesterday. That was you that struggled. That was you that doubted. That was the old you.
Today you are new.
God makes you that way.
And what a beautiful picture you are!
