Of
late I am having a great time in my personal devotions as we read through the
Bible. We do it every year but it is not boring. This year I am seeing how I often get great
concepts from my reading. Things I need
to implement in my daily life. AND there
is the problem. How can I consistently get what I know in my
head to be in my heart, and working. How
to get it up and running. With a
computer, you push a button and if you push the right set of buttons, you are
up and running. Spiritual life is
different. There are no buttons. It takes much thought and energy to keep the
focus where it needs to be. No sliding
by! I cannot do this! God is steadfast,
and keeps pulling me into account. So implementation requires me to go deeper
into God, and know him. More God, less
Jeffrey works well.
You've learned a lot, already! Christ living in us is the hope of glory! J. B. Phillips puts it this way: “The secret is simply this: Christ in you! Yes, Christ in you bringing with him the hope of all glorious things to come.”
