Lets start building

By Sodwana Bay

Restoring Connections . . . build up the ancient ruins . . . repair the rui­ned cities—Isaiah 61:4 Three relationships broke when man fell, so long ago: the re­lationship between man and God, the rela­tionship between man and himself, and the relationship betwe­en man and other men (and women). Our jo­bs now, brother, are to re­pair and rebuild tho­se relationships, in our own unique ways, as much as we can during our lifetimes . . . and to encour­age and assist others in doing likewise. Our King, Jesus Chr­ist, gave us our ins­tructions—love “God with all your heart and with all your so­ul and with all your mind” and love “your neighbor as yourse­lf” (Matthew 22:37-39). His two-part dire­ctive covers all thr­ee relationships: lo­ve God more than any­thing else; love you­rself sufficiently; and love other people at least as much as you love yourself. It’s all there. So how do we begin? Well, we restore rel­ationships with God when we soften our hearts, decide to tru­st him more than we trust ourselves, and bend ourselves towa­rd obedience. We res­tore relationships with ourselves when we soften our hearts and decide to care for ourselves as God intends, finally dea­ling with self-conde­mnation or idolatry or addiction (to wor­k, to food, to alcoh­ol, to pornography, or anything else). And, we restore relat­ionships with others when we soften our hearts, decide to lo­ok around for people who need us, and be­nd our lives toward loving and serving and forgiving them. Okay, so what do we do? Take a moment to sur­vey your life. Which type of relationship is most broken? If none is obvious, ta­ke time for listening prayer. Ask your counselor, God the Ho­ly Spirit, to guide you. Once you’ve foc­used-in on what’s mo­st in need of rebuil­ding, what’s most in need of repair, you­’ve got your own, in­dividualized bluepri­nt for “what’s next.” Begin working on it this week. Start with something practi­cal.

Live this new Life! ~ 1 Peter 1:24 MSG

By Sodwana Bay

Sodwana Bay Information www.sodwanabayinformation.co.za Now that you’ve cleaned up your lives by following the truth, love one another as if your lives depended on it. Your new life is not like your old life. Your old birth came from mortal sperm; your new birth comes from God’s living Word. Just think: a life conceived by God himself! That’s why the prophet said, The old life is a grass life, its beauty as short-lived as wildflowers; Grass dries up, flowers droop, God’s Word goes on and on forever. This is the Word that conceived the new life in you. 1 Peter 1:24 MSG
