A New Gratitude

Titus 2:3 "For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lust and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful and hating one another."

"All have sinned and come short of the glory of God"; there is none righteous, no not on, there is none who wants to obey the Lord, none who wants to do His will. There is not one who is able to walk in the Holy manner in which we have been called to walk in, we all had to be born again. If we could have done better, Jesus would not have had to die.


We who have been saved by the grace of God, need to be carful in our dealings with others. Often in our effort to be Holy we come across as being self righteous, acting as if we are better than someone else. We who have receive the Lord in our life are better off, but we are not better than anyone, for Jesus shed just as much blood for the least and He did for the greatest. We tend to sometimes forget that we at one time was lost, we were foolish, disobedient, deceived, many are still deceived, serving the lust, will, and desires of the flesh, under the disguise of religion." But by the grace of God there go I". We have to remember the kindness and love God shared with us when He gave us Jesus. It was according to His mercy that He saved us, He blessed us with a heart to receive Jesus in our life. There was nothing we did, for Jesus said we didn't choose Him ,but He choose us.


Let us be kind to those still in darkness, let us love them with the same love Christ loved us with. Let us pray that the Father forgives them for they know not what they do. Let us lay down our life by putting aside our wishes, wants, thoughts, and ambitions, and let the Lords will be done. Remember but for the grace of God, that lost soul could be you....
