Good Friday! Good News! God sent His Son and brought every person<\/i>\u00a0Life<\/b> and forgiveness<\/b> and relationship with Him<\/b>! \u00a0It’s also the anniversary of my son’s sobriety – Woohoo 🙌🏽<\/p>\n

But for you who welcome the Spirit of Christ, in Whom God dwells\u2014even though you still experience all the limitations of sin\u2014you yourself experience life on God\u2019s terms.\u00a0<\/b><\/i>\u202d\u202d<\/b><\/i>Romans\u202c \u202d8:10 \u202dMSG\u202c\u202c<\/p>\n

This night, years ago our precious teen surrendered his addiction and his life to the only One who could truly help. Hope for a fresh start, that’s what most of us long for. Me included. To think, it’s actually possible!<\/p>\n

And yet… there is the fact that I experience all the limitations of sin on a daily basis. Yuck. Even so I am more than a conquerer through Christ my Victorious Lord. And so the struggle continues, like an emerging<\/i> from old into new. I am forgiven, I have abundant Life!<\/p>\n

It’s in the remembering of what happened on Good Friday, of all that was accomplished through Jesus’ death and Resurrection, that I stand amazed, renewed and reminded of who I am today in Christ.<\/p>\n

A beautiful day. A beautiful marker.\u00a0<\/em>I welcome You, Spirit of Christ. Thank You for new Hope! Your terms of abundant Life in exchange my sins are the best deal ever!<\/i><\/p>\n
