You have power within you...

Hey brothers,



One thing I struggled with and sometimes still do, I used to look back at my past and allow thoughts of failure to cripple me. See before I knew Christ, I carried the heavy baggage everywhere. It was and still is for many hard to cut the rope that is tethered to the bundle of sin that used to be a part of us...
Truth is you can't move ahead till you rid yourself of it fully. You can't do it on your own either. We will always remember those things, our poor choices, and failures. They are part of our testimony, they can be used as part of doing something good. Ministering to another perhaps...

"Brothers, think of what you were when you were called. Not may of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. He chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things--and the things that are not--to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before Him. It is because of Him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God-- that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. Therefore as it is written: "Let him who boasts boast in the Lord." 1st Corinthians 1:26-31 niv

Just as our salvation came through the Holy Spirit and Jesus Christ working in us, so does the positive motions we make to further His kingdom. We were never asked to do it by ourselves. While your looking at your stats, and thinking what am I gonna do? Just remember with His Holy Spirit we all become "All Stars!"
Always remember you were cleansed at the cross...
In His loving grace,

Michael.....
