A Low Down Dirty Shame (Part 2)

In reference to our previous post, it was rather grim. We are not fire and brimstone kind of gals, but we wanted to convey the severity of that message, the malignancy of sin. We want to inspire you to let God exterminate sin in your life, like you would exterminate cockroaches in your kitchen.



It doesn’t mean that God does all the work. It starts with your choice. Every single time you are tempted you have to choose to let God work in you. From the moment you wake up to the time you go to sleep and every moment in between each choice should allow God to move on your behalf.



The problem comes when we take control. We fail, because our very existence is born into sin. When we sin, which will happen and we allow the guilt to separate us from God, we are no longer abiding in God’s grace. This is the devil’s most successful and popular deception to separate us from God. As a result, every time sin is the cause for our estrangement from God, our bondage to Satan is exposed. That is why it is imperative to cling to God even more in moments of shame and weakness. For it is through a contrite heart, repentance and forgiveness that we benefit from God’s unlimited grace and we remain free in our connection to our Master.



To be bonded to Christ is the ultimate freedom. Every low down dirty shame that you accumulate is covered by the pure and perfect blood that Jesus shed for you.



To being wise,


Meredith, Jennifer and Marisa
