9/16/2010 - Gal. 2:20 Whose Life Is It Anyway?

Posted in Unspecified

SCRIPTURE: Gal: 2:20 My old self has been crucified with Christ.It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

OBSERVATION: What a difference it makes when I realize that I am dead. Dead to my old way of life. On the other hand, I now have the oppournity to live like I have always wanted to; not controlled by my old self (who wants that!!) but to live a life made possible by the one who lives in me. If I want this to be reality, I need to spend time every day (sometimes many times a day) focusing on who lives in me and through me.

APPLICATION: I am learning what a difference it makes to live with the reality of Jesus in me. I am asking Him, nearly every day, to live, love and respond through me. What an honor, previledge and responsibility to think that Jesus actually lives in me.

PRAYER: Jesus, again today, I take into myself the bread of your presence and remind myself that you are alive in me. May I live, always, like this is true.
