Our Culture has fallen into a lie.

Well, The American Culture has fallen into MANY lies.  But there is one in particular I am writing about.
*drum roll please* (just kidding, if anybody ever gave me one, I'd freak and maybe turn purple)
 
       It is the lie of Can't. But, it seems to be even deeper than that.  It is the lie of not good enough.  It is the lie of 'why should I reach for more or something higher?  I'm living THE LIFE.'  It is the lie of 'oh well I'll just be like this all my life.  Guess it's just the way God made me.'  Can't is a disease.  Many don't know they have it.  If they do, they "CAN'T" get rid of it.  Can't is of the natural, though sinful nature.

    We weren't made for what is nature to us.  We were made for more. So much more.
  We were meant to rise above.  But, since sin came we must CHOOSE.  Can or Can't?  Christ-Centered or Self-Centered?  Aligned with Christ or Aligned with Flesh? (ouch, that one hurt type a little.)
So, my question for you is, will you CHOOSE to rise above it?  To trust that you have greater purpose?  To strive to live unto The God of The Bible?  To remember that it is The Most High that you are living life unto? To press on and GO HARD?  To remember that is in The Power of The Almighty Abba that you CAN? To make it HIM to the deepest part of you that you place above all else?
Through Christ, I live the CAN life.  Sometimes I have a difficult time walking that out, but that is usually when I haven't been in The Word for a while.
And I'm asking you to do the same.
Get into The Word and Fellowship with The Lord, and CHOOSE to see that you Can shed that sinful nature and choose Christ; the CAN life!
Your purpose is GREATER than this world.
I, truly, can not write enough on this topic.  Though, I do believe it is now time I stop in this post.
