A Letter from Christ

Our life is a letter written for others to read.

Wow! That is quite a statement. In II Corinthians 3:3, 5-6, we find the following words, "You show that you are a letter from Christ..., written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts..."

What can I allow the Spirit to write in my life today? Is the letter of my life that the world can see full of love and grace? Or anger and bitterness?

Continuing on with our verses: "Not that we are competent in ourselves to claim anything for ourselves, but our competence comes from God. He has made us competent..."

He has made us competent. What a great promise! Reminds me of: "I can do all things - through Christ - who strengthens me." I am so glad it is not dependent on my competency or my ability. Only on my availability to Him.

Lord, I'm available to You!

Awesome nugget of truth...Thanks for reminding me that truly..."it's all in Him and by Him!" His Truth is displayed on the billboard of our lives.

Blessings!
