“To live is Christ” means that when we sin we have a propitiation and a parakletos. We have an advocate whose blood speaks a better word for us. Better than all our excuses and all our broken promises.
An Ancestral Advent Day 8: The Son of Judah and Tamar.
In Christ, like Tamar we have the seed of righteousness in us. We are carrying Christ’s redemption within. His love and justice can be born in us today. May we courageously allow Jesus to be unveiled in our lives this Christmas season.
TLIC DAILY. DAY 342. DECEMBER 8: OUR FELLOWSHIP.
Are you living in this fellowship of Christ with others? If you’re not, then you’re probably not experiencing Jesus as God intends. Your joy probably isn’t full. And “to live is Christ” is probably not how you describe your life.
An Ancestral Advent Day 7: The Son of Jacob.
This Advent season, in the midst of all the hustle and bustle of Christmas, lay your head on the rock of Bethel and hear God say, I am with you. I’ll never leave you. And I will bring you home.
TLIC DAILY. DAY 341. DECEMBER 7: GROW IN GRACE.
“To live is Christ” means never, ever, ever, decreasing in our need for grace.
An Ancestral Advent Day 6: The Son of Abraham.
This Christmas season may we be the sons of Abraham. The children of faith. Faith in all the promises of God. Faith in the return of THE Son. And faith in our union with Christ that sustains us in our waiting by his love.
To Live is Christ
