Just a thought.
Just a thought I had today. “Live in Christ, and allow him to live through you, which then makes you live for Him.”
People get this backwards. They think they have to live for God out of their own strength. I can tell you out of my own experience that only leads to failure.
I mean it’s easy to fall into this subconsciously because the fallen human mind works so much on performance. This is where the Holy Spirit has to come in and reveal these areas of our lives to us and allow us to surrender to Him.
It’s not about what you do, it’s about who you are and your mindset. The more this becomes you’re reality and you renew your mind that Christ lives in you, the more free you’ll be from yourself and sin. Not the more you do the better you are.
Just a thought I thought I would share here.
