Are you feeling your life is less than what it was intended to be?
As you look at yourself in the mirror today, do you think you are less than what you wanted to be? That you are not the person God wants you to be? That you haven’t responded as you should to God’s call in your life?
If you have feelings like this, there is hope. If you feel guilty about your life and the things you’ve done, there’s a way out. God simply wants you to recognize the fact that you cannot be and do what you want with out Him. He wants you to know He’s provided a way out for you to climb of desperation into the abundant life by giving his only begotten Son who did what you couldn’t.
Once you’ve confessed Jesus is Lord, believing God raised him from the dead, you became a child of God. You’ve been adopted into God’s family and have nothing to fear. No matter what you’ve done yourself — no matter what this world has thrown at you — no matter what your health is, your level of prosperity, your race, your class or your gender, you have access to the Creator of the heavens and the earth through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Perhaps it’s time you made a new start — in your mind — to respond to God fully, openly, honestly and transparently. You can make a new start any time you want on any day of the week. You can make a new start every day as a matter of fact.
Don’t let the past hold you down. Don’t let fear of the future and the unknown prevent you from pressing forward. Make a new start and your Lord Jesus Christ will be with you to guide you and strengthen you.
I wrote a song about making a new start. Perhaps it will speak to you and inspire you to do the same. Enjoy!
Making a New Start
I’m making a new start, it’s a new day;
It’s coming straight from my heart to live more in God’s way.
I’m singing a new song; give God the praise!
He knew it all along that I’d rejoice all my days.
He said it doesn’t matter what I’ve been through.
What He’s forgiven, He has forgotten too.
All that matters now is what is in my heart;
That’s where I hide His Word so it will never part.
I’m making a new start, it’s a new day;
It’s coming straight from my heart to live more in God’s way.
I’m singing a new song; give God the praise!
He knew it all along that I’d rejoice all my days.
To live in His love is all He asks of me;
To love Him with all of my ability.
I can love myself for what He has already done;
And even more I can love His sons!
I’m making a new start, it’s a new day;
It’s coming straight from my heart to live more in God’s way.
I’m singing a new song; give God the praise!
He knew it all along that I’d rejoice all my days.
As I study His Word I see He wants the best for me;
So I’m learning how to live more abundantly.
Only when His son returns and I see him face to face;
Will I fully know the wonders of His grace!
I’m making a new start, it’s a new day;
It’s coming straight from my heart to live more in God’s way.
I’m singing a new song; give God the praise!
He knew it all along that I’d rejoice all my days.
I’m making a new start, it’s a new day;
It’s coming straight from my heart to live more in God’s way.
I’m singing a new song; give God the praise!
He knew it all along that I’d rejoice all my days.
