Starts and Ends

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come. The old has gone, the new is here.  2 Corinthians 5:17 NIV

starts and endsMy friend was thinking about me and came over with a lovely cup of hot coffee. She wanted her old educator to listen to her. I told her to pray and not to worry. Grace woke us up today, so it is up to us to sprinkle kindness along the way. The Christian days we share do start and will one day end with Jesus.

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come. The old has gone, the new is here. I reflected on this verse. It was a new day. The verse meant that no one walked down any lonesome road alone. Jesus never leaves our side; He wants to hold our hands forever.

As believers, we trust in Jesus’ miracle healings and teachings. We worship the greatest healer and teacher in human history. Our days should start and end with Jesus. Daily, I sit here and ask how I can serve the Lord.

Personally, I aim to inspire belief with kindness and positivity. Perseverance should be our middle name. If we all do this, our faith will stand strong. Let’s pray and reflect on our blessings. Begin and end each day with Jesus.
