Made Alive with Christ

Ephesians 2:1-10 NLT
¹ Once you were dead because of your disobedience and your many sins.
² You used to live in sin, just like the rest of the world, obeying the devil—the commander of the powers in the unseen world. He is the spirit at work in the hearts of those who refuse to obey God.
³ All of us used to live that way, following the passionate desires and inclinations of our sinful nature. By our very nature we were subject to God’s anger, just like everyone else.
4 But God is so rich in mercy, and he loved us so much,
⁵ that even though we were dead because of our sins, he gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead. (It is only by God’s grace that you have been saved!)
⁶ For he raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus.
⁷ So God can point to us in all future ages as examples of the incredible wealth of his grace and kindness toward us, as shown in all he has done for us who are united with Christ Jesus.
⁸ God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God.
⁹ Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it.
¹⁰ For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.

and she gives instructions with kindness.

1 Corinthians 13:4-7
4 Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud
5 or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged.
6 It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out.
7 Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.

1 Peter 3:9
Don’t repay evil for evil. Don’t retaliate with insults when people insult you. Instead, pay them back with a blessing. That is what God has called you to do, and he will grant you his blessing.

When Life Is Hard

Psalm 13
1 How long, O Lord? Will You forget me forever?
How long will You hide Your face from me?
2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul,
Having sorrow in my heart daily?
How long will my enemy be exalted over me?
3 Consider and hear me, O Lord my God;
Enlighten my eyes,
Lest I sleep the sleep of death;
4 Lest my enemy say,
“I have prevailed against him”;
Lest those who trouble me rejoice when I am moved.
5 But I have trusted in Your mercy;
My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation.
6 I will sing to the Lord,
Because He has dealt bountifully with me.

John 16:33
These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”

Revelation 21:4
And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”

Psalm 56:8
You number my wanderings;
Put my tears into Your bottle;
Are they not in Your book?

Blessed New Year 2025

 

Blessed New Year
2025 in Jesus

Embracing a Christ-Centered Start

As we step into the New Year 2025, it is a time of reflection and renewal. This year, let's embrace the profound calling to love people as Jesus Christ taught us. In a world often marked by division, loving people is not only a command but a transformative action that can change lives, including our own.

Loving people begins with understanding and empathy. It's about seeing beyond differences and recognizing the inherent worth in every individual. This New Year, consider practical ways to implement this love in your daily life. Start by listening more intently to others, offering a helping hand to those in need, and forgiving past grievances. By doing so, we honor the biblical call to "bear one another's burdens," as noted in Galatians 6:2. This act not only strengthens our communities but also brings us closer to the essence of Jesus' teachings.

As we navigate 2025, let's ponder these questions: How can we better love those around us? What burdens can we help lift in our communities? By reflecting on these, we can truly make this year a blessed one in Jesus, filled with compassion and love for all.
