Tilted treadmill

by Bruce Wadd  

 

Some people use treadmills for fitness.  Those wanting more, use the tiltable varieties for extra impact in their exercise regime.

 

I don’t know about you, but this kind of exercise seems rather limited because you don’t actually go anywhere…you’re trapped!  The treadmill just keeps going around, and you have to keep walking to get any benefit.

 

Christian living can often be the same as stepping the treadmill.  The devil whispers in some people’s ear, lying to them about how bad they really are, and trapping them into the mediocrity of struggling.

 

Let me shatter the treadmill of life… it doesn’t need to be that way! 

 

You can live beyond your past, under no condemnation because of an amazing liberating and life-changing fact.  You no longer need to be accused and weighed down by your sinfulness.  Confess it to God… and accept his eternal offer of cleansing and freedom.

 

Read it carefully, and contemplate how this can impact your whole way of life. 

 

“So there is now no condemnation awaiting those

who belong to Christ Jesus.” 

Romans 8:1

 

TODAY, get off the treadmill… and be free!
