Jesus laid His life down for our sake, and the greatest thing we can do in return to show Him our love and allegiance is to lay our lives down for Him. Setting aside our old ways, our selfish desires, our sinful nature, our own self Interest to say…”Lord, I am yours! my life…is yours to do with it as you choose. Where you lead me, I will follow.”
This kind of life shares in the resurrection of Christ. Having died to our sinful nature, we are no longer chained by shame, but instead we are moved by conviction….walking into new life, which is an eternal life with the One who conquered death!
May your life be poured out for the One who gave His life for you. He has in His hands the keys to life everlasting. It is in Him alone that true life can be found.
“For whoever wishes to save his life [in this world] will [eventually] lose it [through death], but whoever loses his life [in this world] for My sake will find it [that is, life with Me for all eternity].” - Matthew 16:25
