Christ’s Life
“Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.” Matthew 10:39 (ESV)
A Christian does not live their own life, we live Christ’s life through faith and by His indwelling Spirit. When we believe the Bible and respond to the gospel we follow our Lord in newness of life. We die to self and arise to a new life that is no longer governed by selfish ambition, but we seek to bring glory to God in all that we do, say, and think.
Let’s pray today to allow the Spirit of God to have control of our every thought and actions.
