Cross The Line


He gambled and lost.  
 Everything was lost. 
It was not the first time.
What he understood now . . .
what he did not understand then . . .
is that . . .
he had had never fully committed His life to God. 
Was it too late?
With the power of God, it is never too late to be transformed. 
Transformation begins when we cross over the line . . .
from living for self . . .
to living in relationship with God.
How do we cross the line?
Read  Joshua 3:1: Then Joshua rose early in the morning; and he and all the sons of Israel set out from Shittim and came to the Jordan, and they lodged there before they crossed.”  

The people had to decide if they would cross over the Jordan River to receive what God promised. They did not cross immediately but lodged there.  

That said . . . it takes courage . . . to leave the comfort of what we know . . . even if it is not the best for us . . . and begin a new life.
Live fully engaged with God has for you.
Take the risk.
Cross the line 
 
  Learning with you to KICK START the day crossing the line.
