Spiritual DNA

Have you ever asked yourself if your spirit carried a DNA, whose DNA would it be carrying?

The more I look around, the more I realize how broken our world is. It is saddening to see the effects of what we as God’s most glorious creation leave behind. It is saddening to see all the evil going on in the world, in our own neighborhoods and perhaps our own families. It is saddening to see that following Jesus is irrelevant to the world and being kind and humble is not a characteristic that people look for anymore and if you are kind, and a person who loves the way Jesus loved, then you are nothing but a weirdo!!!

Perhaps it is time for the Christians around the world to not compromise and be more like Jesus. Perhaps it is time for us to take action and love our enemies, instead of repaying evil by evil. Perhaps it is time to actually follow the the message we have been given by God and to be a light. What would the world be like if everyone was humble? If every one was loving and kind? If everyone sought to be morally pure?

I guess we will only know the answer through those who really are in Christ and are allowing Him everyday and allowing Him to transform them daily to what He created us to be. We were created to be holy! Created in God’s image. How awesome to thing that we carry the DNA of our creator. The DNA of the Father whom is full of love and forgiveness.

 

1 John 1:5-10

“This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin. If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us.”
