Sold under sin!

There is always a reason to rejoice, sometimes we feel sad, depressed or "gloomy", but I really believe we need to recognize and remember all we have received from God.

Sometime we pray over and over about something that we expect too much. Recently I was praying constantly for my desire to have another child; then I start thinking in all those things I ALREDY GOT IT! ..I’m complete in Jesus! Those simple thoughts turned off the vacuum I had inside… I DO NOT NEED ANYTHING ELSE!

I fixed my heart and I said “Nothing that I expect can surpasses the thanksgiving for what I already got”

Living in grieve is an option! We have more things that any other generation and we still saying “I will be happy when….” If we set our happiness in the things to come…you’re never going to be happy, there is always something to expect. But our lives will be easier if we can realize and be thankful for what we already received!

Remember where we came from…Romans 7:14 says: "For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin"

We were sold under slavery!

For this reason the law could not produce life for us. It is because the law is spiritual, but we are carnal. The law is perfect, but we aren't.

If we could have lived up to every detail of the law, then we could have obtained salvation through it. But all have sinned and come short of God's perfect standard (Rom. 3:23). All except for one, and that is Jesus.

The wonderful thing is... the law did provide life for one man, the man Christ Jesus, because He was the only man who was ever perfect. Jesus was without any sin whatsoever and therefore He deserved eternal life as a payment, not a gift.

Those who put their faith in Jesus as their Savior, benefit from His keeping of the law (Rom. 8:4). We are no longer slave of sin, or prisoner of the Law, but free indeed by the grace of God!

This is enough reason to rejoice the rest of our lives!!

love you!
