Members of The Turnaround Management Association are rarely asked to join successful companies. Instead, these skilled professionals are called into ailing businesses to help get them back on their feet.

The same need for dramatic change exists throughout society. People who can reverse the downward spiral in an individual's life, a relationship, or a team are constantly in demand.

But what about changing the world? Many people would say that only God can do that. And that's exactly what He sent His Son to do. The Bible describes humanity's downward spiral by saying that the entire world was imprisoned by sin and "in bondage" [Galatians 3:22; 4:3].

Into the hopeless situation Jesus came "to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons" [4:5]. The personal turnaround for us begins when we accept God's offer to eternal life in Christ and receive His Spirit into our hearts [v.6]. Rather than simply being given a new set of rules and sent off on our own, we are adopted into God's family.

Jesus Christ is the ultimate turnaroud expert. He specializes in impossible cases. Will you invite Him into your life today? --- David McCasland

The Lord will turn your life around
If you'll invite Him in;
Then you'll at once be heaven-bound,
No longer chained by sin. --- Hess

WHEN WE CHOOSE TO FOLLOW JESUS, OUR WHOLE LIFE CHANGES DIRECTION.
