Day 46 ~ Reflecting by the River

Day 46 ~ Reflecting by the River

2 Corinthians 5;17 ~ Therefore, if anyone is In Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, The New Has Come! 

As the river flows endlessly, life is being intimately renewed, refreshed, restored.  The old cleansed washed away. The new arriving within every moment. Our life might not see the undercurrents, but change is occurring. Affecting things unseen, yet visible within The Lord Our God. Structures of protection. Environments sustaining varieties of life. The very foundation holding it all together. 

As I reflect by the river it makes my life wonder how life underwater adapts to change. Is there crumbling, arguing, and rebellion flowing. Is there manipulation, intimidation, division flowing. Is there ugliness, bickering, complaining flowing within the undercurrents. Or is there gratefulness, appreciation, and thankfulness flowing living hope within The Lord Our God. Undercurrents flowing new life boldly, courageously, fearlessly. Flowing agape love, sacrificial forgiveness, everlasting life in heaven into the undercurrents of everyday life. 

Within our very inner-core of thriving life lives a heart of love, a mind of engageable thoughts, a soul flowing within everlasting life. All intimately sustained: spiritually, physically, emotionally. Like the undercurrents within the river. Our life is flowing within the sacrificial blood within Christ Jesus. Our heart is living renewed, our mind refreshed, our soul restored. Our very life is living intimately cleansed; forgiven of all sinfulness. Living hope flowing new life. Constantly changing the undercurrents within our inner-core of thriving life. The sacrificial blood within Christ Jesus is intimately flowing away the old.  Forgiveness is sacrificially flowing living hope. 

Within our heart a new creation of agape love flows within Christ Jesus. Within our mind a new life of protective guidance flows within the Holy Spirit. Within our soul lives a new life of living hope flowing within Abba Father. The old has gone flowing into the undercurrents of undeserved grace.  The new has come flowing a new life spiritually, physically, emotionally within The Lord Our God. 

Let's remember not to flow crumbling, arguing, or rebellion as our life lives among a world of ungodliness. A humanistic world flowing within the undercurrents of hatred, bitterness, and resentfulness. A world flowing away living hope, agape love, sacrificial forgiveness, everlasting life in heaven within ungodliness. 

Living hope is flowing intimately within cleansing redemption. Flowing a new life of restoration within The Lord Our God. Flowing away the old undercurrents of sinfulness.  The old has gone, the new has come. Our discipleship is flowing cleansed, redeemed, restored within living hope. This is not complicated. Discipleship flows faithfully within the unseen. Remember. Our discipleship: It flows agape love into the unloved, sacrificial forgiveness into the unforgiven, everlasting life in heaven into ungodliness. Flowing living hope into the undercurrents of hopelessness. The old has gone, the new has come. Our discipleship is flowing a new creation of living hope within Christ Jesus. Boldly, courageously, fearlessly flowing new life within the cleansing, redeeming, restorational undercurrents within God the Father ~ God the Son ~ God the Holy Spirit ~ Amen ...
