God is teaching me so much about my heart that at times I can't stand how it looks. Even tonight. However, God has good news for us. Through Him, nothing can keep us bound to the chains that restrict life and freedom.

1 Peter 1:9 says, "He has called us to a holy life. Not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace through Christ Jesus. This grace was given to us from the beginning of time."
A Holy Life means ridding anything that separates you from God. From evil, to deceit, to slander, to rage, to unforgiveness, to immorality, to foolish talk. Walking in obedience to this call means being willing to be sanctified. Think of open heart surgery. You are on the operating table and God is surgeon. Are you willing to let God look at every faucet of your heart, mind and soul? Even further...are you willing to let him work?
A Holy Life is not easy. Sanctification is not easy. But in the end...beautiful.
