Are You Considering Your Life To Be Your Own or Borrowed?

Are you considering your life to be your own or borrowed?   The thing about borrowing something, we tend to take better care of it because we know it doesn't belong to us.    The word borrow means to take and use (something that belongs to someone else) with the intention of returning it.   Do you understand that God has granted us the use of this body?   It does not belong to us.   We have to stop living like we have no owner.   

One definition for owner is one with an interest in and often dominion over property.    We are God's property.    However, He has delegated us the authority to live this life and to make choices concerning our lives.    Somewhat like an owner of a store.   He hires a manager to make decisions concerning the store but the manager does not own the store.     It's time we start living our lives as though we know we belong to God.   When we truly recognize that ... things will change because we tend to honor and respect things that belong to others more than we honor and respect those things that are our own.    

Remember you have been purchased by God with the price that could only be paid by the blood of Jesus.    Live like you know.
