The Exchanged Life

2 Corinthians 5:14

Christ's love controls us. Since we believe that Christ died for all, we also believe that we have all died to our old life.

It is the righteousness of our beloved, Jesus Christ, that shines forth in us when we submit ourselves to be vessels of His perfect love.  The love of Jesus in our lives is what allows us to show the world what living for Christ is all about.  If we ever try to show the world Jesus through our own holiness, and not through the righteousness that we have received from Our Savior, we will fail.

Prayer,
Heavenly Father, we pray that our living testimony will be anchored by the presence of the Holy Spirit in our lives.  May Your strength be perfected in us so that our weaknesses may be overcome.  May the world see the way, the truth and the life of Jesus through us as we leave our old lives behind in exchange for the our new lives in Christ.
