Understanding our sinful nature can be surprisingly encouraging, as it sheds light on why we face struggles in life and why people sometimes act in selfish or hurtful ways. Recognizing our own sinfulness fosters humility, helping us become less judgmental and more compassionate and loving toward others. This week, we’ll explore what it truly means to have a sinful nature and how God graciously offers to transform it into something beautiful.
How do we strengthen our foundation to handle whatever life brings? We often get discouraged because we don’t have enough discipline to do what we know we should. What if we examined our beliefs? Do we believe what we say we believe? What if our beliefs determine our behavior? Which then determines who we become. How can we let God transform our beliefs? Thus enabling us to become who God created us to be.
