Christ is energy, grace and love that flows into our lives from our Father. Life is difficult. The commands of Christ to love enemies and forgive those who have trespassed against us cannot be done in our own strength. God never expects us to do it on our own. When Christ is in us, the energy of God is working in us. It is by this energy that we obey, serve and live the the cruciform . You do not have to do it on your own. You can’t. In the energy of Christ you can.
“For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength (Philippians 4:13 NLT).
