We have this great salvation that was offered to us through the blood of Calvary. Not that we are walking in newness of life, we find that life is not always going our way but it is now being directed by the one who saved us. He is the one to whom we submitted our life at an altar of repentance and in the waters of baptism in the name of Jesus. As a result, He has made us to be a vessel for His purpose and in His kingdom. We just have to realize and remember that, although our world may seem to be topsy-turvy, the One that we allowed to take control in our lives is accomplishing all things in us and through us and for our good.
