“Life Anew”

 Ezekiel 11:19-20

“Then I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within them, 

and take the stony heart out of their flesh and give them a heart of flesh,

that they may walk in My statutes and keep My judgments and do them;

and they shall be My people, and I will be their God.”  (NKJ)

      Because of our sinful nature we come into this fallen world with a heart that is also sinful and in time becomes hardened with self-preservation and pride—conditions that causes us to drift away from our Creator without knowing how dangerous it is without Him.  This world and everything in it is cursed because of the evil one, who poisons our minds, hardens our hearts, and kills our souls, and he will continue doing so until the Lord locks him away for good.  We must live and deal with our sinful nature as long as we are alive or until Jesus takes us Home. But for the living, our Lord God has provided the Way that we can escape the grasp of evil that holds us captive to the self-destructive sins that leads to eternal separation from the eternal light of God. 

     Our world has been so deceived by the lies of Satan that it's really hard for people to know and understand what is truly true and what is not.   God's Truth frees us from the power of sin and death and promises us new life, while Satan's false truth draws us deeper into our sin and promises only death.   God's Truth teaches us to know, love, and respect the One who created us, while the dark truth inspires us to ignore and hate God, and blame him for the woes of the world.  God's Truth helps us accept our circumstances, and tells us to live in thanksgiving to God for the good things we have.  But the false truth causes us to despise our circumstances and blame others.  By knowing the Way and the Truth that comes from above, will bring Light and Hope into your life. Our Lord God and Savior came, He taught, and He sacrificed His life to bring us a new eternal life.

                                                    A Whisper of Hope

I rescued you, dear child...to give you hope and a future, to earn your trust, and to give you a new heart.  I did not create you to live apart from Me, for you cannot survive on your own.  And I can give you what you need for a new and glorious life that will never end.

Jeremiah 17:9

“The heart is deceitful above all things, and

desperately wicked; who can know it?  (NKJ)

                      Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, 

                                he is a new creation;

                        old things have passed away; 

                  behold, all things have become new.

                                  (2 Corinthians 5:17)
