He Gives Himself

It's wonderful to be in Him.  It's wonderful to know His strength inside, and His joy, and His peace.  I think lately He has been showing me that those aren't things, they are really HIM who is strength and joy and peace!   We are united with the very Spirit of Christ in our spirit.  And the Spirit of Christ is peaceful in us.  He is joyful in us.  He is strong in us. 

Everything we need is a Person!  He IS loving and good and powerful in us!  So if we love somebody, isn't that Him loving them through us?  Isn't that Him pouring out and touching their lives?  Yes!  He doesn't give things, He gives Himself.  And wrapped up in Him, the gift of His Spirit to be within us, is everything we need for life and godliness, every bit of acceptance and love we crave, every spiritual gift, every victory!  

                        With love,
May the amazing grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the extravagant love of God, and the intimate friendship of the Holy Spirit be with all of you. 2 Co. 13:14
