So many thoughts are floating around in my mind at the moment! The two words that are on my mind frequently right now are victory and obedience. Especially with Easter having just happened I am reminded again that Christ already has the victory because of the cross, yet so often I find as Christian's it's so easy to have a defeatist attitude. If God doesn't answer our prayers quick enough or in the way we want it seems much easier to give up or develop the attitude that says 'well I'll pray but I don't really expect God to answer'. Christ HAS the victory! He has already WON the battle- period. I know if I truly lived my life in this knowledge it would transform my attitude towards everything.
Because of the cross of Jesus it is my responsibility to respond in obedience. Obedience is the
only option...
Trust and obey
For there's no other way
To be happy in Jesus
But to trust and obey
