Who we are now

There are many times in life that we can feel lacking in energy, where the difficulties of life dampen our spirits and that surviving from one weekend to the next is the best we can hope for.
A big part of this is our self perception.
Who do we believe we really are?
What do we think we are made of?
We must be careful not to allow our feelings to dictate to us who we really are. there may have been a time in the past where we were incapable of standing strong through the difficulties of life, where surviving was all we could hope for and looking to bless others was a distant dream.
But now all things have become new. God has made us new on the inside. Our DNA has been changed. Christ lives in us. And through him we can do all things, through him we are more than conquerors, through him we are mighty warriors, able to shift mountains and overcome all obstacles that life throws at us.
So if we hear the voice that says 'this is too difficult I cannot, ' let us finish the sentence with 'but in Christ I can!'
