When Jesus is not in control then everything will be out of control.
The reason most of our lives are messed up could be because we have not place Jesus in control. Honestly, when Jesus is not in place, then everything is out of place. That’s exactly what I discovered about my messed up life.
My life was at a dead end. My credit cards debt balloon by every second. My business fell out of favor with everyone. My family was falling apart. In fact everything was falling apart. Not even the most powerful glue can weld my fragmented life together. I was on the verge of suicide.
That’s when I discover that I am not Jesus-centered. I was money-centered. I was worldly-centered. That was the reason for all my disappointments and failures. My earthly life was revolving around money instead of Jesus who alone loves me and gave his life for me at the cross.
Each day together with my Saviour helping me, I struggle through to restore my Jesus back at the center of my life. There were days I slipped, but my Saviour Jesus was always there to support me, never abandoning me to guide me back to Himself. My Saviour Jesus patiently helps me slowly to re-establish and reinstate Him into my life.
Honestly, the task to have my Saviour Jesus build his home in my heart was never easy if He had not lent a hand. Jesus was ever ready and is always joyful to have his home in my heart so long I am enthusiastic. My Jesus helps me to draw strength and faith from Him to restore Him to my displace and disorder life.
With my Jesus dwelling in my heart, the Holy Spirit helps me to slowly empty my earth life of the things that is of this world. My life is now crucified with Christ. I no longer live, but my Saviour Jesus now live by His Spirit in my earthly life to help me to live by trusting in him alone who loves me and gave his life for me at the cross. Galatians 2:20
With my Saviour Jesus in control and in place, my life also was under control and well discipline. Through it all I learned obedience.
You must not have any other gods but Me. Exodus 20:3
Thank you Lord Jesus who alone loves me and gave his life for me at the cross.
Sharing God, my heavenly Father in Christ Jesus's wisdom that fills my tots daily.....
