Meet Me at the Cross.
“Outwardly, we are wasting away..”
Well. I kind of feel like I’m inwardly wasting away. We’re just caught in this pit of self-destruction. We do what we do not want to do. So, therefore, providing the proof of the inner war being battled out within us. So how do we get out? How do I let Jesus live through me?
First, it starts with dying. “I was put to death on the cross with Jesus Christ and I no longer live..” We die to our desires. We surrender our wills. We submit to our King.
After death, we are raised to life through Christ. “Therefore, anyone who is in Christ is reborn; the old is gone, the new has come.” Christ lives through us. He is living for us. Let’s face it. Even our best is still dirty to Jesus. Therefore, let us be clothed in the righteousness of Christ.
And through it all, we fall down at the cross. We realize our inadequacy and we put it on Jesus.
Hey…tomorrow morning. Meet me at the cross.
