CHANGED! And Changing Still..Chikamu
You’ve Changed
Key Thought
God and man experienced an uncomplicated intimate friendship in the Garden of Eden. It was the way it was always meant to be. No fear of judgement, no shame, no hindrance. Just a deep loving relationship that was life itself.
Sin changed all that. It severed what was natural and fulfilling. Sin interrupted a natural order and disturbed the peace -globally. For the first time, man was afraid so hid from God. And, well, we have been hiding ever since.
You have changed!
You are part of the human race that has changed and fallen from its original plan and purpose, which is to reflect the image of our Maker. Adam's sin has affected us all. The whole planet is out of balance. This is the most vivid picture of how our choices today affect our descendants tomorrow.
Thank God for His plan of salvation. That God is reconciling the whole world back to Himself through Jesus Christ. Our only hope of changing back to what God originally made us to be is found in relationship with His Son, Jesus.
Time To Think
God saves us and restores us for relationship. What relationships do I need to work on fixing or making better?
Prayer
Father, I'm sorry that sin has disconnected us all from You. And I'm sorry for all the sins I have committed against You and others. Thank you for Your love and mercy. Thank you for Your saving grace. Help me walk in Your love with You and others around me. Amen.
