A Fresh Start
Just as exposure to disease causes physical corruption or decay in your body …. exposure to sin causes corruption/decay in your soul!!! Your soul is made up of your mind, will, and emotions…
Remember sins such as wrong attitudes , harsh words, gossip, pride, mean/wrong thoughts(yes! your thoughts can be sinful), lying (by the way, there is no such thing as a white lie!), there’s many more … The list goes on and on… and remember there is no “degrees” of sin…” we all have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God” (Romans 3:23). So this could be quite discouraging EXCEPT for the fact that we thankfully have the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ -The beauty of Grace is that we can start brand-new, every single day… Because we have the opportunity to repent and begin with a fresh start!!! How awesome is that?? All I know… is that I really like that I can start afresh each day!! whew!
The Bible tells us to “be quick to repent” – and by the way, God already knows THAT you sinned and HOW you sinned – we might as well get the repenting out of the way!!!
Keep your soul healthy… The more you expose yourself to the word of God and the teaching of God the healthier you will be and the healthier your thoughts, choices, and emotions will be!!
Have a healthy day! 🙂
