BE STRONG IN THE LORD

Greater is He who is in me than He who is in the world.  O sweet mystery of life, at last I've found you!  Walk in the Spirit and you won't give way to the flesh.  Do you find you are weaker in your own flesh?  You always have been in this realm in which you now live.
     Jesus is the overcomer.  Jesus is Lord of all.  Put on the Lord Jesus.  He is in  me to will and to work for His good pleasure.  I have been crucified with Christ.  It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me.  And the life I live, I live through faith.  His faith.  His love, His patience, His kindness.  His life...HIS life.  Be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power.  When I am weak, then I am strong.
     A mystery unfolding.  There are games and books galore out there on mysteries...mostly murder.  This is the greatest and sweetest mystery unfolding.  Christ in us, the hope of glory.  He walks with me and He talks with me, and He tells me I am His own, and the joy we share as we tarry there none other has ever known.
     Ah, sweet mystery of life.  At last I've found You...in me.  In the world still.  Thank you, Jesus... a work in progress.
