Don't have a 'Grave clothes', mentality

"Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here, but is risen" 
                                                                                                            Luke 24:5-6     NKJV



These two verses are so full of power that they cannot just be glanced over quickly. They need devouring and digesting. God has specific plans for you. He hasn't just picked your name out of a hat. He has been nurturing and training you for a long time. It's not been an easy task because, there are rough edges that require fine honing. However, He is getting you ready; He is preparing you for the course. He wants your attention - your focus. He doesn't want the lack of concentration that you may have been giving Him lately. He means business; He's always meant business. He shrugged off the grave clothes when He rose to life and I believe, He is calling all of us to do the same. Get rid of the 'Grave clothes' mentality and start living.

Today, God has plans for you. The time on this earth is getting shorter for everyone and we can either walk around with a 'Grave clothes' mentality or a 'I'm alive' one. The first one will hold you back in all you do; whereas the second one will propel you towards your goal.

As I mentioned, time for us on this earth is getting shorter. Jesus will be returning as soon as the Father directs Him. Now, that could be today, we never know. All the main reason to be ready. Shrug the 'Grave clothes' mentality off. He has a plan and you figure in it. 

The impact Jesus made on this world when He rose again was phenomenal. He's going to make a greater impact when He returns, that's for sure. Make sure you're ready!
