It Is Finished!

 I don't know about you guys but I constantly find myself trying to fix things, to get rid of my sin, to change my life, to make myself better for God. But why, Jesus has already done all of that for me! It's so crazy for me to think about how thousands of years ago, Jesus cried out on the cross "It is finished!" and in that very moment everything that I find myself trying to cover up and fix, was already taken care of! I can now come before God as my broken self, because he has got it all taken care of.  I love the line that says "This is not perfectionism this is hope." God has created a plan for my life and has called me to be more like him knowing perfectly well that I will fail and I will fall, but has left me with a hope that I can live my life striving to do the best that I can and someday I will spend eternity with him. It is so awesome to know that we can celebrate Easter everyday because the story of his resurrection didn't end on that third day, Jesus is alive today and he always will be and that calls for a celebration everyday! Happy Easter Everyone :)
