Thought of the Day #18: "A Newer Better You"

Since its January the health and fitness companies are bombarding TV, radio, internet and most anything in print with their ads claiming that their product is the one that will help you become a newer better you.  Well maybe some of them can actually help but, come on, most of us doubt if their claims are real. You know who, without any doubts, can help us with our health and fitness and everything else? The best part about the price tag for it is that it's FREE!!! It's JESUS! Woo-Woo!  

It is through the lessons of life that the Lord works in us and stretches us in ways only "The Potter" can. "But now, O Lord, You are our Father, We are the clay, and You our potter; And all of us are the work of Your hand." Isaiah 64:8 (NASB)  The Lord is the only one that knows exactly what we need, when we'll need it and what provisions are needed in order to help with our self-improvement.  He is the one that knows what will make us stronger, tougher, wiser, more patient, kind or loving too! Jesus is all about helping us grow Spiritually, emotionally...anything that will help us improve ourselves so that we may be the righteous ones He so desires us to be.  "May you always be filled with the fruit of your salvation—the righteous character produced in your life by Jesus Christ—for this will bring much glory and praise to God." Philippians 1:11 (NLV)
