In case you didn’t know it already, I have to share a very odd truth with you. Being like Jesus will feel weird at first. I know that sounds crazy, but let me explain.
Fish don’t know they’re wet. You only know what you know when you know it and you can’t know anything else until you’re exposed to something new. Normal is what you know and feel at the moment. It isn’t until you’re exposed to something new that the realization sets in that your normal isn’t healthy (i.e. sinful and separated from the source of real living – Jesus).
When this happens, you have two choices. One is to stay the same, even though you know there can be something better. And two is to change. Yet, with positive change comes a weird feeling because you’ve never felt that way before.
When you have an encounter with the Living God, you’ll be exposed to a new way of thinking, choosing and living. Jesus said, “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life.” He is the normal that is fulfilling, satisfying and meaningful. When you choose to let Him change your life, this new normal will feel weird for awhile as it is just that…new. You’ve never felt that way before, which is why you came to Christ in the first place. You realized your way of thinking, choosing and living, though normal to you, wasn’t working.
Expect to feel weird when your life has been transformed into Christ’s image until the new normal sets in place.I know this is kind of weird, but that’s completely normal.
