Day 16: Forgiven Forever

Writer's picture: JoniJoni

Aren't you happy that we get to wear the

MASK of JESUS.

HE covers it all so PERFECTLY

so that we can have a

RESTORED

REDEEMED

RELATIONSHIP

with GOD.

And if we wear HIS MASK

we will experience

REVIVAL

in our hearts & in our minds

that seeps into our lives

that seeps into other's lives.

Because if we

LIVE UNMASKED~BEING REAL WITH JESUS

HE puts HIS PERFECTION MASK on us

as we

PRESS FORWARD~

"I actively press on so that I may take hold of that [perfection] for which CHRIST JESUS

took hold of me and made me HIS own"*

And don't camp out in the past~

"forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead"*

because GOD doesn't camp out in our past~

“I—yes, I alone—will blot out your sins for my own sake

and will never think of them again" (Isaiah 43:25).

Doesn't that give you the strength

to

"press on toward the goal to win the [heavenly] prize of the upward call of

GOD in CHRIST JESUS"*

to

move beyond what strives to hold you back

that strives to rob you of

the

JOY

of

living free of

guilt & shame

that binds you to the past.

Oh you know of guilt & shame

as we have all eaten the "apple" that GOD told us not to eat.

Whatever your "apple" is

don't you wish you didn't take a bite,

yet you did,

and maybe you are still taking bites~

little bites

yet

these bites are stealing from you

the

JOY

of

Pressing Forward

as one who is

FORGIVEN.

Oh how I had to get over myself

and get out of my pity party

of

camping out in the past

because I am MASKED by JESUS

who covers our past

who walks with us in the present

&

who has prepared a perfect place for us in the future~

"But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a SAVIOR from there, the LORD JESUS CHRIST, who, by the power that enables HIM to bring everything under HIS control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like HIS glorious body".*(Philippians 3)

THE JESUS MASK

Forgives the Past

THE JESUS MASK

Provides a Peaceful Present

THE JESUS MASK

is the ticket into

a Forever Future

that is worth

Pressing Forward.

So I will keep on

THE JESUS MASK

because I can't do life without HIM.

So let's press forward

"TOGETHER" (listen to the song below)
