Creating a new life in me.
Day 2: Awakening. Identifying the difference between light and dark, good and bad, right and wrong. Understand that there is a separation between that which God says will bring us life and prosperity and that which God says will bring us death and destruction. Don't focus on specifics or look at any grey areas that may exist between light and dark. The first step is to delight in the things you can deem good and hate the things you can deem evil. Establishing this difference at a basic level is very important, before anything else crowds in and starts blurring the line.
Genesis 1:3-5
'And God said, "Let there be light." and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. God called the light "day," and the darkness he called "night." And there was evening, and there was morning---the first day.'
Action Plan: Think of five good things (shown love to God or another human being) that have you have done recently. If you have not done five good things in the last week, go out and do good things until you have 5. Do these things as anonymously as possible. Every even hour throughout the day, think about the good things you have done and smile about them. Recall them in your mind and delight in knowing that God is smiles down from heaven when he watches you show love to someone. Imagine how you would feel if these things were done to you. After dwelling on good things, think of five bad things (caused hurt to God or another human being) that you have done recently. Every odd hour throughout the day, think about the bad things you have done and get angry at them. Admit to yourself that these actions only hurt yourself and others. Imagine how you would feel if these things were done to you. Hate the fact that you did these things to someone else. Before the end of the day, try to rectify these actions.
