“You know me inside and out, you know every bone in my body; You know exactly how I was made, bit by bit, how I was sculpted from nothing into something…” Psalm 139:15 The Message

What will be your “today” decision…?

 Your inside and out life were personally … purposefully … and powerfully shaped by the Sculpting One. You are known through and through. There is not one minute that has ever escaped the presence or mind of God. You have never done anything that surprised Him. You have never experienced anything that has caught Him off guard. You will never face anything that He doesn’t know. This is exactly how you were made … redeemed … and called to live out of the resurrection life of Jesus. You have a decision to make today: To live with Christ as the center of your life … or … live with yourself as the center of everything. For some it is a saving center … Christ dying.  For some it is a living center … Christ risen. For some it is the only center … Christ in me! It is your decision … inside  and out. It only takes a moment…

“Our firm decision is to work from this focused center: One man died for everyone. That puts everyone in the same boat. He included everyone in his death so that everyone could also be included in his life, a resurrection life, a far better life than people ever lived on their own.” 2 Corinthians 5:14-15 The Message
