This advent, while we wait upon the Lord’s return, while we wait for God’s coming flood, may we run, not into the ark of Christmas, but into the ark of Christ. His faithfulness. His salvation. His rest.
TLIC DAILY. DAY 339. DECEMBER 5: THE DIVINE NATURE.
Do you really believe that you have already been given everything you need for life and godliness today, and every day? Or are you still waiting on God to give you more than Jesus’ life? Are you still waiting for God to do more than the cross? More than the resurrection? More than “to live is Christ?”
An Ancestral Advent Day 4: The Son of Enoch.
Are you walking with God by faith in that same exact promise? The promise that the hero will crush death once and for all, and we will never die.
TLIC DAILY. DAY 338. DECEMBER 4: HUMBLE YOURSELF.
“To live is Christ” is exaltation and glory by God but only through our humility and dependence on Christ. May Christ’s humble heart for us humble our own hearts for him.
An Ancestral Advent Day 3: The Son of Enos.
As we are back to waiting for his blessed return, may we never fail to call upon the name of the Lord. His name is Jesus. Because of our union with Christ, his name is written on our hearts. May it ever be on our lips.
TLIC DAILY. DAY 337. DECEMBER 3: SHARE CHRIST’S SUFFERINGS.
“To live is Christ” means that in suffering we can share in Christ, and in his acceptance by God. We can share in his friendship with the Spirit. We can share in his courage, and in his holiness. We can share in his goodness and compassion, in his love, in his very life. And then, one day, we WILL share in his eternal glory.
To Live is Christ
