Today I have shared a devotion over at Laced with Grace entitled “You won’t get there overnight”.
Have you ever all of a sudden jumped up and decided that you want to get into shape and start exercising? You’ve made up your mind that today is the day that you are going to start a new life, a new routine and get into shape once and for all! So you start your new and exciting exercising routine for the wonderful results you will soon feel and see! You jump into your tennis shoes on, pull your hair up into a pony tail, and quickly get dressed into your workout gear and you’re off! But after a few days you get discouraged because you don’t see any results and feel like you’re not doing anything and want to quit.
I think we all have done that at least one time or another. We get sick and tired of living a life without the benefits. When our hearts are clean and full of Jesus we are living a life with benefits. The benefits are all that follow from having Jesus in your heart and living a righteous life…..
