Believers shouldn’t live in and of ourselves. We are not expected to make our own way or forge our own path.
Christ is our life. He is the essence of our being. We are complete in Him. I stand in need of nothing my Lord is unable to provide.
Gal.2:20 – I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
I face no trial or adversity that is beyond His sovereign control. Death may one day claim this mortal body, but then I will live as never before.
