Really Real Reality

I keep waiting for God’s sovereignty to overwhelm me and make me incapable of living in myself, filthy in sin. How foolishly I've forgotten about the balance between His sovereignty and the responsibility He has given me in Him.

As someone who professes belief in Jesus Christ and the Truth found in Him and the Bible...We just have to live in Christ. Just live in Him, make decisions, take action, change, but all in him.

It's ALL about Him. This is real Christianity simplified. He lives through us.

Faith without works is dead. So...Works are clearly important, but they MUST come from Faith.

IF we Love Him, we WILL Obey Him. Right?

Is it then wrong to, in Faith, Obey Him with our flawed love believing that authentic Love will manifest by His grace?

Since He has revealed all of these truths…and we’re conscious of our situation and the Truth…I believe it is eternally best if we just choose to obey by His grace through faith.

Of course, we can't make this choice apart from Him, because apart from Him we can do nothing. That is, whatever we do apart from is nothing.

Only in Him am I capable of living out the life I desire and that He requires. However, since He has placed me in Him, He is now living in me and I am living in Him. Because of this, I can be confident that, when I step out to obey in faith and out of love for Him, He is able to perform that work in and through me. He, Jesus Christ, is my confidence and my source. I no longer need to flounder about sinfully waiting for Him to do something apart from me. I am a part of Him and He is in me. This reality makes me able to do all things.

I really can. He said so.
