He Receives, Cleanses, Fills, and Uses

“If you surrender your life to Christ, you will find yourself with a future.

“What Christ receives, he cleanses.

“What he cleanses, he fills.

“What he fills, he uses.”

Dr. Dennis F. Kinlaw, a hero of mine, wrote that in This Day with The Master.

St. Paul, in 2nd Corinthians 5:17, “Now we look inside, and what we see is that anyone united with the Messiah gets a fresh start, is created new. The old life is gone; a new life burgeons! Look at it!”

Let’s roll those two together.

Start with St. Paul’s admonition to “look inside.” Or as he says in case we missed it the first time, “Look at it!”

When you do, are you looking at the promise of “a fresh start” or the result?

Next, Dr. Kinlaw’s opening line here, “If you surrender your life to Christ, you will find yourself with a future.”

Do you?

See you back here tomorrow…even in this election season…or maybe especially now.
