Real

I'm going to ask you a pretty tough question.. a question to make you think...

What's holding you back?

It could be anything. For me, something that has been holding me back for much too long is the habitual sin of overeating. We all have struggles. What is yours? I'm not asking you to tell me.. I'm asking you to really be real with yourself.
So what if other people do it too... This isn't about them. This is about you.. and what separates you from true joy with Jesus. Nothing holding you... us... back.

It's hard to move forward with weights holding us down. We have to hand them to Jesus... they don't hinder Him. He wants us.. and in order to get to us.. He has to tare the thick veil between us and Him.

Whatever sits on the throne of your life... if it's not Jesus... it needs to go. It's not a religious thing. It's the fact that nothing can satisfy our hearts... truly satisfy without any lack... except Jesus. It is good to have things like...food(or whatever it is that is between Jesus and you).. but when food becomes the god of your life instead of Jesus... there's trouble....

We can't let the devil deceive us. We were made to be free in the LOVE OF JESUS CHRIST. But that doesn't mean we use this freedom to do whatever it is we please. Yes, if we ask for forgiveness of our sin... Jesus forgives and forgets the sin.. it's wiped away clean as if it was never there to begin with... But if we use and abuse this grace... it's betrayal to Jesus.

Let's find the ROOT to our weariness.. dig it up.. and burn it.. Let our roots be in Jesus.. and nothing else.

"As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God." 
(1 Peter 2:16 KJV)

There are certainly many more things I am working on besides overeating.. this is just an example. 
If you need any personal help with whatever it is that you are struggling with.. You can contact me by emailing me: forChrist97@gmail.com
I'm not saying that I can fix it... only Jesus can do that. Fellowship is always a great way to get closer to Jesus. So let me know.

Jesus, forgive me.. I always need help.. We all do. I plead the blood of Jesus Christ over every reader and myself in the name of JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH! We are not called to be broken in shame and guilt. We need You, Jesus. Show us what we need to get rid of in life.. and please help us do so.. for You, Jesus. I send angels to protect us and minister to us in JESUS name. Show us your glory, Lord. In Jesus name, we Love You.. In JESUS NAME, AMEN.
