Col1

"Christ in you the hope of glory". How often do you think about this strange concept? Is Christ really in you? If you are a true believer, the bible would clearly say, "yes". Ponder that for a moment. Christ is "in" you. Wow.

You might ask, "Then why is it so hard to live for Him? Why do I continue to struggle with so many things?" The simple answer is, spiritual immaturity. Paul said that he labored and strived for every believer to be "mature in Christ". Maturity is measured in one's ability to actually do what Jesus would do. God has provided the desire and power to do his will. We need to provide the maturity and will to actually follow through.

What is Christ calling you to "do" today? He will provide the ability, you need to provide the will. Walk in a manner worthy today. Cooperate with Christ who lives in you. What an awesome thought.
