You are a born again person, remade in the image of Jesus Christ. You
know how Jesus was while He walked the earth and how He is even today?
That is how you should be in every day! You know that He is the Prince
of Peace. You know that your life should have the fruits of the spirit:
Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness... (Gal 5). But you alone also know
your deepest, darkest and not so deep thoughts of sin, loneliness,
doubt, fear, selfishness, depression, worry, ambition, desire for riches, envy, covetousness, and so many other thoughts that are not born of God's Spirit.
My question to you is this: Imagine if only you lived as Jesus lived;
walked like He walked, talk like Him and even acted as He would in your
daily life. Would your life be different from who you are today? This is
what Christians refer to as living the spirit life: living according to
the spirit and not the desires of the flesh. Te Bible reminds us that
we have been given everything we need to live a life that pleases God
through Jesus Christ (2 Pet 1: 2 - 5 ) and yet we live as though we can
please God by works alone or following certain 'biblical / scriptural'
principles.
The most important element that you will ever possess that shows you belong to the family of God through Jesus Christ and have been renewed, is Love. Many of us are more concerned about things and how we get them: Food, Jobs, Money, Cars, Houses, Reputation, Position, Wealth, Relevance, Politics, Ideologies and Fallacies. How did you fall that far from the first day God revealed Jesus Christ to you? Have you forgotten that Jesus says we should take no thought for our lives, what we shall eat or what we shall drink?! That our heavenly father knows that we have need of these things?!
Brethren, all is not lost. God is Love and His Love for you is ever present. You can live a life that is full of love, peace, joy, patience, kindness...: You can have an Abundant life. Jesus Christ gave His life so willingly for the sin of the world so that we can know the father, Just as He does. If this is what you want also; to know the Father and be like Jesus, then I would encourage you to say a Prayer now if you can. Ask God to show you what to do in order to be like Jesus. Many have been Christians for a very long time and still have struggles with very many things that have distracted them from the simple truth of God's Love (1 Cor 13 ): Brethren, we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers in High places.
You cannot do this on your own, Ask God to help you and give you strength to overcome the weakness of your own heart. God loves you and wants you to be who He made you to be
God Bless You
