Not just the urgency of Christ in our lives, but the actual purpose of our lives.
We get so wrapped up in what WE want.
Our future,
career,
spouse,
income,
family,
location.
We make a plan of what we desire our lives to look like, and then politely ask Jesus to come bless it.
That's not that point!
Why is it so hard for todays generations to give up their plans.
To realize success will bring you
To understand the depth of this life.
We aren't designed to live a life and bring Jesus along with us.
We were created by God and for God, and until we fully understand that.. our lives will never make sense.
There is no other purpose to why we are alive. Our plans mean nothing.
God is our director. He calls the shots.
We just need to be willing to throw away the materialistic dream for something that will last for eternity.
God is too gracious and Jesus is much to great to miss out on.
Why do we continue to try and out smart this God?
We are fools.
We are unworthy.
We are wretched.
Sinners.
Filthy.
Damned.
It's through Christ we are sanctified and through sanctification our paths are made straight.
It's through the salvation the worlds plans for our lives suddenly seem so small.
Don't live your life with small hopes.
Make a God sized dream and a God sized goal.
But this time: let God get you there.
Be different. Be the change. Take. The. Challenge.
Understand this: without Christ we are nothing and are damned for eternity. It's only by His blood we can overcome a world so great as ours.
Because through Christ, we are more than conquers.
