However, sometimes we think we only need that
person, this or that job, or enough money to pay the rent, buy
a car, and pay bills, and yes, we do have basic needs and
wants, but placing God first is the most critical need. Once
we do that, He satisfies every single need and quenches every
thirst!
“But seek ye first his kingdom, and his
righteousness; and all these things shall be added
unto you.” Matthew 6:33 ASV
My perception, emotions, and behavior have changed.
I also have more self-control and am pulsating with life and
energy! The Lord had to humble me so that I could see my
need for him. He regenerated me and began helping me to
see, to spiritually perceive, and to hear, to spiritually listen to
Him.
Jesus Christ uses the word “repent” over and over in
the Bible, which is why I was originally going to title this book
Remade From Rue. One definition of Rue means repentance.
Of course, the repentance itself didn’t save me, but it was
necessary. Jesus Christ is the One who saved me. He changed
my heart and helped me see that I needed to repent. He also
helped me to repent. I was remade by Christ. Christ was key.
He calls sinners to repent so that they can live the good life
with Him!
