"His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.
For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness;"
2 Peter 1:4-5
To accept the Lord is the beginning part of the new mission. Let the spirit guide your new habits of daily scripture, prayer and meditation. As you grow in your desire to learn about Jesus and your new life, the daily habits of immersion into your new life for Christ will replace your old ways of spending time. You will thirst for scripture.
In the great moments of the experiences of God we are ready to go and follow him at once. In the mundane daily life of routine and habit there is hardly a whisper of the call of God present. When you are reborn in Christ - you are reborn in Spirit. This is true. The spirit of the most high God - will be born in you. The spirit will be an infant inside you and grow and mature in the wisdom and understanding of the Lord as you fuel his spirit in you by faith and obedience to his word.
Be careful not to be caught only in the beautiful nature of the Lord as he is Love but to be diligent in pursuing his life inside you at all times - for this is the purpose of rebirth in you. When you do this with heartfelt diligence and faith it is the Lord himself that will live in you. You see God is a spirit of Love and he is who is he is.
