As
authentic Believers, we get so much loving attention from the Trinity. We are
connected to the Vine, which is Christ, and our Father is our caretaker. He
prunes off our carnality, so that we can bear more spiritual fruit for His Kingdom (John
15:2).
This
lightens our load in life, narrows our desires that cause us distractions from
our purpose, and diminishes the number of trials that we experience from our
own making.
Our
Father gave us to Jesus for safe keeping (John 17:12). Jesus is our ever
watchful Savior, Lord and King (1 Timothy 6:15). He is also our Brother and
co-heir with us of all that belongs to our Father God (John 15:15; Romans 8:17).
In
every issue that we experience, the Trinity is there working out everything for
our eventual good (Romans 8:28). God allows trials in our life to perfect us,
to draw us closer in an intimate relationship with Him, and to give us wisdom
for our future.
Our
faith in the Trinity is never wasted. We may get disappointed, because we did
not get what we wanted, but we always get what God wants us to have, which is better
than what we wanted. Even a jail cell is a sanctuary in which to worship our
Lord.
In
this world, we have two choices: either to serve Satan and our flesh or to
serve our Living Lord. When we serve our self/Satan, we put our life under a
horrible bondage; however, in serving the Trinity, we find true freedom, which we
never before experienced.
There
is no need for us to worry about anything in this life. God is working out the
issues in our life to bless us and to further His Kingdom (Jeremiah 29:11). He
uses our faith in His faithfulness as a testimony to those around us.
Prayer:
Father
God, Jesus constantly stated that who He was and what He did was a direct
manifestation of Your work in and through Him. We can enjoy this same
relationship with You, because of Christ's sacrifice for us on Calvary's cross.
We are so thrilled to enjoy this life of a union and unity with Your Trinity
(John 14:10).
You
fill us with Your presence, and we enjoy the peace, love and joy that You pour
over us, in us and through us every moment of every day. We detest a life apart
from You, and we can never praise You enough for giving us Your new life for
now, as well as throughout eternity (2 Corinthians 5:17).
Thought
for the Day:
A
light bulb without electricity is useless; in this same way, our life without
Christ in us is no more than an empty shell, useless and without a source of
power.
