The Refreshed Christian

Nothing and no one has the power to guilt-trip or shame you. They cannot!

This one rings hard because, too often, we are held back by the guilt we feel for not:

- Achieving things within a timeline
- Dancing to the expectations of others
- Not moving through life as fast as we want
- Making mistakes and being reminded about them.
- (add yours!)

None of these and the elements that are being used to project them on you have the power to keep you bound by shame.

Jesus has you covered. Today and always 💜

The world will push you to tough limits.

Try to get you to talk like them. Behave like them. Make decisions like them. Be liberal like them.

They will compel you to see the abnormal as normal, and aberrations as regularities.

Do not give in.

Do not let Goliath’s boast drive you to fear.or compromise.

Do not let Nebuchadnezzar’s buffet make you forget your regal heritage and origin.

Do not let his golden image make you appear more glorious than our God.

Do not let the prophets of baal have the last laugh (they never laughed anyway).

Lastly, do not let the word of God out of your grasp. Hide it in your heart. Let it’s power dwell richly in you.

Purpose in your heart to do this, to the glory of God alone.
