Daily Grind!

Romans 6: 4
We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.

For some of us, today will be a return to the daily, weekly grind.
I wonder if we call it the “grind”, because daily life has a tendency to grind us down?

We get ground down, because of all those responsibilities we have—and decisions we need to make—and just the endless details of everyday life.
This endless litany of decisions, can often numb our senses.
We can also get so ground down by the things of life, that we can lose our connection with God.

It’s when the things of life get us down, that we need to be transformed.
Did you know that through Jesus Christ, we can be renewed and transformed?

When we come to realize, that Jesus came to the end of Himself for us, maybe it’s then, we can come the end of us?
Transformation happens, when we give up our lives and the daily grind, for Him.

Today, He can replace your old, worn down life, with a brand new life.
When the new life begins to take place, the old, mundane one, is quick to fade away.


Allow His glory and grace to shine through today, and maybe you won’t feel like life is such a grind after all…
