Happy Easter!
Reading today’s entry, I’m challenged… I need to make the connection between my Savior, Jesus, who bled and died for me and then rose from the dead, victorious (awesome!), and my run-of-the-mill, everyday sin that I’m working to conquer. I’m the reason He had to do it all, but because of His incredible power, He broke sin’s power forever. That’s the power available to me to overcome sin (again – it’s awesome!).
And in other non-Easter news, lately I’ve been challenged as I recognize the sin of pride in my life. It’s driving me towards God, to be reminded that my confidence is based in Him, not myself. I’m pretty sure I struggle with the other two types of temptations Neil describes as well, but for the last few days, this is where I’m living.
Have a joyous Easter celebrating Jesus’ resurrection, and may we be transformed again by His awesome power.
