I don't want to stay the same as I am now. When I grow up, that is. I was meditating and walking at the same time last night, and sin in my life was revealed. Unless change occurs, I could totally turn out to be a tyrannical husband and father, a weak man that flies into rages at the drop of a hat. I can see the sinful tendencies in my life, and I hate it. I HATE SIN! I know I have new life in Yeshua, but the fact is that I'm still living in this weak, sickly body of flesh.

"...consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Messiah Yeshua. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body that you should obey its lusts, and do not go on presenting the members of your body to sin as instruments of unrighteousness; but present yourselves to God as those alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. For sin shall not be master over you, for you are not under law but under grace." Romans 6:11-14

Sin is not my master anymore. My master is Yeshua, the Messiah of the world. So although I'm in a mortal body, I offer my body to You, Yeshua, as an instrument of righteousness.
