God Is More Than Able When We Participate
It breaks my heart that I spent my entire youth and the majority of my adult life not knowing how to truly recognize and receive the presence and power of the Holy Spirit in my body and mind. The profound grace, calm, clarity, and capacity to connect with myself and others can be found no other way.
Yesterday, I was reading through some of my pre-Jesus journals. I was raised in the church and baptized as a child; when I say "pre-Jesus," I mean before I walked (In) a relationship with Him, before my near-death drowning experience. I used to put in so much effort and try hard every day. I was trying to get it right. I was so frustrated that everything I was striving toward still felt empty.
Then Jesus showed me how God's love, peace, and home are here for me—the peace, welcome, and freedom I was striving toward were right here. I hope today's class flow helps all of us go deeper with and (In) Christ.
Join me in the Word and song today. Feel Christ's Spirit further awaken within you. Let's stand together in this Living love.
Rise (In) Shine
Christ Alive (In) The Word
Romans 8:1-4 (NIV)
1 Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, 2 because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death. 3 For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in the flesh, 4 in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
