Crucified with Christ


"I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me." Galatians 2:20

What does it mean to be crucified with Christ? It means taking up your cross to follow Christ (Matthew 16:24). It means submitting literally everything to Him- including your dreams, aspirations, goals. Your only goal should be to follow God's will for your life. This is the process of killing your fleshly desires, and replacing them with an eternal focus. Honestly, what God has for your life is greater than you can even imagine for yourself. If you find yourself stressed, overwhelmed, or confused about your future, try total submission. Happy Tuesday! :)

"And he said to all, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me." Luke 9:23
