When you truly see Jesus for who He is, everything about you—your worldview, goals, and affections—transforms completely. Even more, your sins are no longer a burden; you're washed clean because He has changed everything.
Whether we realize it or not, we all look up to someone or something in our lives. God wants us to have leaders, but it's important that these leaders reflect the heart and values of God. King David was called a man after God’s own heart. Those we follow ought to have the same heart for the things of God.
There is no greater way to get to know God, His character, His Nature, His goodness, and the life He has for you than reading His Living Word. And yet most people don’t do it. We have access to God’s Word and yet either don’t take time to do it or when we try, we don’t really understand it. That’’s why we’re taking time to get to the basics, the basics of getting closer to God through His Word.
Peter and John meet a man along the way as they were heading to temple. The only thing that they could give him was the name of Jesus Christ and told him to stand up and walk. The man was healed and we know this story, but what happens next? Peter tells of the goodness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the crowds. Peter and John were committed to share the good news of Jesus as they went out.
In life, we encounter moments of despair, confusion, and limitation. It is during these times that we may feel lost, spiritually blind, and unable to move forward. Yet, it is essential to remember that it is in the in-between where Jesus shows up most powerfully. He bridges the gap between our struggles and ultimate transformation. Jesus is our in between.
