Wednesday Greetings,

Once you realize that you have given power to something that isn’t healthy, that is leading you away from God, you have to decide what to do about it.  The best decision is to give your life over to the will and care of God who will lead you to freedom in God’s grace known to us in the Resurrection of Jesus the Savior of the Creation.

And then, you have to give the weight of your life, your sin, your addiction, your negative thought process, your ????, to God in the cross, and let God do what God does…
Take the mess and make it a beautiful piece of art.

The Cross is an ugly symbol of humanity’s fallenness, and yet, God made it a beautiful piece of art, a sign of grace and forgiveness, a symbol of life not death.

That’s what God does.

So, if you are going to lay aside the weight and all the sin that clings so closely, and actually run the race of life and faith freely in the grace of Christ, then you have to give your weight and sin to God… who knows what to do with it.

Let it go; give it to God.

Peace in our journeys,
Pastor Steve Melde
