"I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me."
What a powerful message. The eloquence of this verse resonated with my soul so much that I felt impressed to read this verse everyday this week. Something inside whispered, "Read this again, don't just pass over it, digest it, for this is the meat."
This week I have also been praying for an Italian friend of mine who recently disclosed some person struggles and whom I hoped would feel the presence of Christ in his life. Something in the words he spoke to me told me that he needed Jesus more now than ever before.
Fourteen hours ago he posted, "Sono stato crocifisso con Cristo, e non son più io che vivo, ma è Cristo che vive in me; e la vita che vivo ora nella carne, la vivo nella fede nel Figliuol di Dio il quale m'ha amato, e ha dato se stesso per me." The very verse that God had impressed on my heart this week. God is so amazing!
