The Power of the Resurrection part deux

We just got home from Apex ~ It was great as usual. www.apexcommunity.net if anyone want to listen online, tonight and tomorrows won't be on til sometime after Sunday. fyi

But, there were some things that have really been hitting me square in the face lately. ie "Resurrection Power" and what that really entails and how it applies to the day in and day out mundane life of me, a stay at home mom of 3+1=4, whose been through a divorce, an affair, an abortion, a bystander of a house explosion my kids were in, and a husband and ex-husband who present situations that require me to eclipse myself with my Savior moment by moment. When I look at my life before I knew Jesus as my Savior, I was a disaster looking for another one waiting to happen. But, what did that empty tomb do to me. . . .

First of all I have been the witness of what a "new creation" transformation really looks like. Which could have never happened without the Resurrection.

Second All of my sins have been erased. Which could have NEVER happened without the Resurrection.

Third All of my "good works and prayers" are significant in the eyes of God, which they wouldn't have been because I would have been an enemy of God. I don't have to seek His approval by my "good works or deeds" because my own self-righteousness was as a "filthy rag" before the Resurrection power change in my life. Now they are FOR Him not for me.

Fourth I can inherit a new body!! This old one will be turned in for a newer one that wont wear out!! 1 Cor 15

Fifth I GET TO BE WITH JESUS!!!! And He Rocks!! (And is the Rock!)

The Power of the Resurrection

Today, all day considering the day in-between the Crucifixion and the Resurrection. Jesus was "doin business". And this is the power that is within me and I need to daily grasp and hold onto.
