It's only the beginning

Did you think your life would be perfect once you gave it up to Christ? The Bible doesn't tell us we will be perfect, but that we will be perfected. There is a difference.

Living for God doesn't mean that you'll suddenly stop making mistakes, be exempt from temptation and free from sin. But it's a common misconception.

The truth is that giving your life to Christ is not the end of the transformation process, rather its the beginning of an amazing story that will unfold.

Don't be discouraged. You have faults and flaws. God knows that. He knows it all. He loves you despite your imperfections. He sees your potential. He sees what he created you to be, and he knows the plans he has for you. It's not a secret. He wants you to know those plans as well, through his Word. Through his Word you can find the comfort and confidence we all seek in our lives.

He has promised to be with you through every step of your life's journey. Are you ready for your new beginning?

You are tempted in the same way all other human beings are. God is faithful. He will not let you be tempted any more than you can take. But when you are tempted, God will give you a way out so that you can stand up under it. I Corinthians 10:13
