In You, with You, for You…. (devo reflection)

Galatians 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ….

Lord, Living “in Christ,” living a life that is “not I, but Christ,” indicates a level of familiarity and intimacy with You that I want in my life. Help me.

2 Timothy 2:11 The saying is trustworthy, for: If we have died with him, we will also live with him….

Lord, When we spend our morning prayer and study time together, You are tangibly close, but as I move about my day, the world gets louder and more insistent and it’s hard to hear Your voice. Help me.

John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

Lord, Thank You for loving me deeply and fiercely. Thank You for the reminder to live humbly, striving to understand and love Your children instead of to judge. Help me to live in You, with You, for You. Draw me closer with every breath. Amen.

Ephesians 2:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God….

Have a blessed day.
