"You will be betrayed even by parents, brothers and sisters, relatives and friends, and they will put some of you to death. Everyone will hate you because of me. But not a hair of your head will perish. Stand firm, and you will win life."
LUKE 21:16-19
A new life in Christ is exactly that. There is not an old life - only a new commitment. Your spirit is new - new eyes - new ears - the Lord within. In patience, faith - trust - obedience - all things within you are truly made new.
In this new - there is you adjusting to a new life. Be free in Jesus in that you are guided perfectly in each moment. Jesus is purposeful in all things. His purpose for you is to be his perfect vessel such that his spirit and life will be seen in you.
We are not called to create tasks based on the Christian life, but rather develop an attitude of following Christ regardless of how you feel. The mood and attitude of an individual that serves Jesus is reconciled to the will of King Jesus being completed. The attitude is set on the face and life of Jesus.
