Comments on: Sin Mangement vs. Forming Jesus in Us http://bobhamp.com/freedom/sin-mangement-vs-forming-jesus-in-us/ Thinking Differently Tue, 07 Feb 2012 10:35:54 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Julia Hill http://bobhamp.com/freedom/sin-mangement-vs-forming-jesus-in-us/comment-page-1/#comment-767 Julia Hill Wed, 14 Apr 2010 20:45:33 +0000 http://bobhamp.com/?p=875#comment-767 "In other words God’s goal was not to straighten out a bunch of mis-behaving miscreants, it was to bring sons and daughters back into a relationship in which His life flows through us to the creation around us." I like this part. I agree that we need to stop trying to be "good" and allow Him to work in us. I also believe that we need to give ourselves to Him in order for Him to work in us. I'm a little confused about this part, "As He re-forms His image in us, we re-present Him as we go. Where confusion has been we can bring clarity. Where fear has been we can deliver perfect love. Where anxiety has been, we can step in and restore peace beyond understanding." "We" can't do any of that, only HE and if He chooses to use us then we are blessed. Maybe I'm misinterpreting what you said. “In other words God’s goal was not to straighten out a bunch of mis-behaving miscreants, it was to bring sons and daughters back into a relationship in which His life flows through us to the creation around us.”

Our God is a redeemer and after so much more than just our list of dos and don'ts... redemption of our hearts and of His people. What an overwhelmingly wonderful God we get to serve and be pursued by. "... it was to bring sons and daughters back into a relationship in which His life flows through us to the creation around us." So good. So good… Our God is a redeemer and after so much more than just our list of dos and don’ts… redemption of our hearts and of His people.

“… it was to bring sons and daughters back into a relationship in which His life flows through us to the creation around us.”

So good.
