Living for more than Me

From the time we belt out that first cry until this very day, we live to preserve, protect and in many ways promote SELF. It is our human nature. But, with the death of Jesus on the cross a new way to live became possible for those who would believe in Him. By spiritual birthright and our new identity in Christ, we now can live according to our Spiritual Nature rather than our human nature. This new way is available to us today and it's freeing.....He died so that we should NO LONGER life for us, but instead Live for Him.

2 Corinthians 5:15
"And he died for all that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him."

Hmm....don't know how? Well girl you are in good company. That is what being WILD is all about. WILD women are not perfect, they are in process...growing developing, daily stepping towards the goal, and learning what it means to walk in Jesus rather than walk in SELF.

Today think about what Paul said in this verse. Let it speak to you. Allow God's spirit to point out some SELF life that can be surrendered over. Remember, one step at at time. Do not expect spiritual perfection from yourself. But, do insist on a growing surrender to the path of maturity. Remember when Scripture speaks of perfection, it is speaking of maturity. That is alot different than the perfection that our culture has trained us to try to achieve.

Take a breath. Read the verse. Think. Read again. Pray. Ask for understanding. Thank God for Who He came to be in your life.

Life fully in Jesus today, just today, we are learning to live one day, one victory at a time. Now that is WILD...Women in Life-Long Development.

Loving you in Jesus!

Today's Prayer
Father, Thank you so much that you came to give me a new and different life. Amazing. I want to see it, know it, live in it, rather than just talk about it. Teach me Jesus how to live for you and not for SELF. I no longer want to live just for me. I want to grow up and be the WILD woman for Jesus that you have created me to be. Jesus, I need you.
