Thought for today: Embrace New Beginnings
If you read Revelation chapter 2 you will see a description of the personality of Jezebel. It even goes forward to state "And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not." This is an interesting sign of someone who is comfortable in the state that she was in. She abused her gift of life and God took notice. Someone that is unwilling to change from sin (or sinful life) cannot receive the promise of an abundant new life. They can't begin with a fresh perspective. They will be stuck in a perpetual state. You can embrace a new beginning by building a relationship with God which starts with taking advantage of the space to repent (ADMIT that you are a sinner, BELIEVE Christ died for your sins, CONFESS Christ to be Lord over your life, DESIRE to live this truth out for the rest of your life). Repentance doesn't change your past, it changes your future and that is why you get to Embrace New Beginnings.
