Now, in Christ, God’s first word to us is always grace. And his second word to us is faith. “I love you…so trust me…” “Christ is alive in you…so to live is Christ.”

TLIC DAILY. DAY 303. OCTOBER 30: RECEIVE HIM.
“To live is Christ” has placed us both into Christ, and therefore into one another. Through this mutual koinonia we can now live out the great exchange of Jesus for each other. Sharing our position of freedom in Christ with those who desperately need his grace.
TLIC DAILY. DAY 302. OCTOBER 29: A BELOVED BROTHER.
“To live is Christ” allows us to continue Christ’s mission of tearing down all walls of separation between us. First in our individual hearts, and then in every part of our society. Allowing our radical equality to remove all our notions of both superiority and inferiority, and to unite us as dearly beloved brothers and sisters in Christ.
TLIC DAILY DAY 301. OCTOBER 28: FOR LOVE’S SAKE.
“To live is Christ” has made God’s love the controlling force in our lives. Now we can appeal to one another from his love, not just his authority. From Christ, not compulsion.
TLIC DAILY. DAY 300. OCTOBER 27: SHARING YOUR FAITH.
“To live is Christ” allows us to see past the messiness of the church and into the hearts of others where we see that Jesus is up to something. Yes, it’s slow and messy. But it’s also beautiful. Just ask Philemon and Onesimus.
TLIC DAILY. DAY 299. OCTOBER 26: AS FOR THE LORD.
“To live is Christ” has radically changed who we are, and at the same time radically allows us to stay as we are. We no longer need to fantasize about escaping our circumstances. We can choose to love, respect, and serve Christ by loving, respecting, and serving those that God has placed in front of us. All to the glory of God.
To Live is Christ
