Knew Life in Christ

As a young believer, I knew from what I read in the Bible and heard from others that I had a “New Life”, but nothing in my life felt very new. In fact, my life felt like nothing changed except now I felt worse about everything I did that wasn’t “right”or what I thought God expected of me. I felt like I was worse than before. What I didn’t realize is that even though I had a “New Life”, until I received the fullness of the cross, all that Jesus had done for me I wasn’t going to feel any different even though I truly was. You see, until I “Knew Life”, life being all of who and what Jesus accomplished through the cross for me, I would never enjoy the “New Life” He had given me. When I finally knew Life ( John 14:6 “Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.) I began to live in the life He created and not the one I was trying to create for Him!

We are who He has created us to be in Him. Life is not what we make it, it is what He has made it. When we can live our life in Him, we can finally live our new life in Him.

Mark
