Agents of change

Agents of change…

We are hearing a lot about ‘change’ as we proceed through this election cycle and it seems that the ‘change’ tag line is gathering quite a bit of interest…and in most instances I would say that we, as a nation, are tired and frustrated with the status quo. So, we have campaigns running on their ability to be ‘agents of change’ for our future.

Well these politicos are not the first to seek change…..God sent His Son to fulfill His promise of change. To set us on the narrow path that leads to life…..delivering us from the wide path that leads to destruction. Overcoming our trespasses and restoring the way to His fellowship as well as His throne. But the price for this change was great – the life of a sinless man, God’s own son, Jesus.

And once He has set us upon that narrow path it is His desire that we also become ‘agents of change’….showing all creation His plan for change…

Are we -
- loving our wife, our children, the church (which is His bride), as well as our neighbor as Christ loves us
- making disciples
- encouraging, exhorting and reproofing our brothers and sisters in Christ
- sharing in word and deed the good news of the gospel with the lost
- relying upon God’s wisdom as we address the issues of our daily lives
- resting not on our own understanding but in all things acknowledging Him
- being lead by the Holy Spirit in all that we say and do
- allowing the fruit of the Spirit to emanate from a life that is fully surrendered to our Lord who loves us with an everlasting love

Are we being ‘agents of change’ for God’s truth and His kingdom in our world ?
