What is guiding your heart this Christmas season? Is it your union with Christ and his presence that brings you hope, and peace, and joy? Have you checked your happiness meter lately?
TLIC Daily. Day 341. December 7: Grow in grace.
“To live is Christ” means never, ever, ever, decreasing in our need for grace. Why? Because Christ in us is constantly revealing more and more of the dark crevices of our souls, bringing us to a place of wretchedness (Rom. 7:24), and revealing the most dangerous sin of the human heart – self-righteousness.
An Angelic Advent. Day 6: The angels of God were ascending and descending on it.
Jesus, the connector of heaven and earth, has come to us and connected our lives to his own. Now like the angels, we are ascending and descending on the ladder of Christ.
TLIC Daily. Day 340. December 6: Make every effort.
When you believe that you have freely and graciously been given everything you need for life and godliness by your Savior King you will, quite naturally, be determined to add these gifts on to your life by faith in Christ.
An Angelic Advent. Day 5: The Angel of the Lord called to him.
This is what our union with Christ offers us. Not only a savior, but a God who can be known, and a God who can know us. Only in this are we truly satisfied.
TLIC Daily. Day 339. December 5: Partakers of 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?”
To Live is Christ
