I love analogies. Of course they are not perfect and will break down at some point, but this one helps to understand our NEW CREATION in Christ.
Jesus handed me keys to a brand new car with a tank full of gas. He gave me a life- time credit card for gasoline and any repairs. He took my old car keys and threw them away saying "These old keys will do you no good. You move over and let me show you how to operate this new car. I designed it perfectly for you. You sit back and rest and leave the driving to Me. I know exactly where I am going and the way to get there. You have to let the old car go. It is nothing like the new one."
Wow. what an exchange for my old car. (Born in Adam; dead in trespasses and sin and exchanged for a new life in Christ. Jesus has given to us the keys of the Kingdom.
The OLD has gone and NEW has come. This is Amazing Grace.
"Be still and know that I am God, I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in all the earth!" Psalm 46:10

GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS
Hello Everyone,
It is so good to be back online. A month ago, I went to write something and I couldn't get into my blog. I felt so frustrated. I have blogged for the past five years and this has never happed.
I want to thank my pastor for his generous time helping me fix the problem. I am so grateful for all the many saints, who have been faithful to pray."Thoughts To Ponder" is back. Thank You Lord Jesus.
I also will be opening another blog on grandparenting. "lastingfamilylegacy.blogspot.com"
On this blog, I will be talking especially about Grandparenting, also addressing parenting and great grandparenting. By next week I pray to have my first post.
Under His wings with all of you,
God answers prayers
