Living with Jesus
Becoming a Christian is not 10 steps to the good life, but it is one step to the “God-life” and that life is Jesus. Jesus wants to lead us, and as he leads us, our life, our marriage and our job can be blessed because of Him. Our family can be healed, our ministry can become fruitful. It is not about what we planned, but it is about him leading us into His plan.
When the Lord is our shepherd we shall not lack. This is not self-help this is not religion or good works. The way to restoration is not us working for Him but Him working in us. We were made to have Him dwelling in us and living through us and He is not seeking to make man capable of life, apart from him.
Jesus said, “In this, would you will have tribulations.” There will be limitations, death and trouble in this world because this is not the world or the life, He ultimately plans for us.
Friend, Jesus is alive and the greatest honour we can give Him is to let Him live through us.
