Because Jesus is alive


I am capable of great decisions because Jesus is alive. The truth will be no different, regardless if I feel condemned or I am too proud. God is not God and he does not love me, if he only imputes righteousness to me. He will make me lie down in green pastures and lead me beside still waters for his name's sake. The world can turn around me but I'll be growing into an oak. I'll be an olive tree in the temple. Because I am not new. I have a story, but God gives me a heart and mind which can be renewed. So, I imagine there will be sorrows still, but I believe in the man walking the Emmaus road. My mind is awake and my heart burns in me.
