Yet, I Will Hope
If we are not depressed enough, read this:

There is hope for all, eternally: He will resurrect each and every one of our bodies.
1Co 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
It is a bad news from an earthly view, and it is a good news from a heavenly view. But we want those changed bodies now!

Think about this: If we set out certain types of bird feed, we attract certain types of birds. May be we need to go to different "feeder". Maybe we should take responsibility for what or where we are feeding each day. We want change, "a twinkling of the eye", but perhaps we need to do our part.

Breaking out of bondage is probably much like getting a tooth pulled. Not pleasant, not our favorite thing to do, but when it is done and over with, we realize the relief and comfort. Perhaps you are beginning to be motivated to break this cycle? If you are, pray with me.

Prayer: Yes, Lord, I see my faults and do not know how to break through them. But I do know Christ has come to set us free. Help me this day to not only break free, but to begin to live disorder free and in perfect health, in Him. Amen
