Good Morning!

A psychiatrist once said: 鈥淚鈥檝e been doing therapy with a man for 15 years and he鈥檚 still as mean and nasty as when we started.

Of course not everyone in therapy is nasty 鈥� far from it. But the truth is, we鈥檙e engaged in a struggle with our own natures. Everyone has flaws to overcome.

聽What we need is a strategy that helps us with our habits (which we can influence) and our hearts (which only God can change).

I heard a Professor at the Harvard School of Business say to his students: 鈥淗ere are 5 lessons - 5 habits to live by.鈥�

1. Without an external code of ethics you will perish.

2. Be accountable to someone who will tell you the truth about yourself.

3. Know yourself. Honestly identify your strengths and weaknesses.

4. The abuse of money, sex or power will lead to your downfall so build counter-strategies now.

5. Just because you鈥檝e been wronged doesn鈥檛 give you permission to do wrong back.

But what about our hearts?

At the core of our being we need a heart change that unites us to God and enables us to draw our life from Him. That is why Jesus came, died and rose again. To offer us new hearts, new purpose and new hope.

The good news is that while life is difficult and sin an ever-present reality, God offers hope and healing to all who need it. And we all need it!

Lord, thank you that the good news is for everyone. Help us become the people You made us to be.聽 Amen
