One way or the other

Elijah said: "How much longer will you waver, hobbling between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow him! But if Baal is God, then follow him!" ~ 1 Kings 18:21 (NLT)

Jesus said: Besides, who would patch old clothing with new cloth? For the new patch would shrink and rip away from the old cloth, leaving an even bigger tear than before. ~ Mark 2:21 (NLT)

KEY IDEA:

It doesn't work to try and live in both the old way and the new way. You have to make a choice.

PRAYER:

Lord,

THANKS: Thank you for giving us a choice -- a way out of the dysfunctional old life.

REGRETS: I'm one of those people who wavers back and forth between the old and the new. I cause a lot of damage to myself and others because of that.

INTERCESSION: I want to change and I need to have some help sticking with the new way.

PURPOSE: I'm no longer going to be flaky. I going to be all about following Jesus.

Amen.
