Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
Tal como Jesús murió al pecado, también nosotros morimos a él. No quiere decir, sin embargo, que el pecado se va a alejar de nosotros. Es necesario, de manera diaria, abrazar la vida nueva que Jesús creó para nosotros. Dejemos, pues, enterrado lo que ya murió. Vivamos con pasión para Dios con los ojos puestos en Jesús y el futuro que el ha creado para nosotros.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Just as Jesus died to sin, we also died to sin through our faith as we were baptized. Paul said it this way in the verse before our verse of the day: The death [Jesus] died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God (Romans 6:10). Simply putting aside sin at our baptism isn't going to keep sin away from us. We must embrace Jesus' new resurrected life every day. We should begin each day committed to living for God with our hearts open to the Lord's exciting will for us. Let's keep what is dead and buried from our past in the past. Let's live passionately for God, focused on Jesus and his future for us.
Mi oración
Señor Soberano y Padre Amoroso, quiero que mi vida de pecado quede muerta y enterrada. Pido que me des el poder para vivir la vida vibrante llena de tu Espíritu y siempre abierta a ser guiada por ti. En el nombre de Jesús lo pido, Amen.
My Prayer...
Sovereign Lord and Loving Father, I want my past life of sin to remain buried and dead in the past. Please empower me to have a vibrant life full of your Spirit and always open to your leading in this new life. Please make your presence and will plain to me as I commit myself to living your will. In Jesus' name, I ask this. Amen.
