Brought back to whom He intended me to ...Beautiful! Brought back to whom He intended me to be. Restored to His good purpose. Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." No longer a breech in our relationship with Him.<br /><br />Galatians 2<br />2a I went in response to a revelation from God.<br /><br />4-5 False Christians were brought in. They slipped in as spies to learn about the freedom Christ Jesus gives us. They hoped to find a way to control us. But we did not give in to them for a moment, so that the truth of the Good News would always be yours.<br /><br />16 Yet, we know that people don’t receive God’s approval because of their own efforts to live according to a set of standards, but only by believing in Jesus Christ.<br /><br />19-21 When I tried to obey the law’s standards, those laws killed me. As a result, I live in a relationship with God. I have been crucified with Christ. I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live I live by believing in God’s Son, who loved me and took the punishment for my sins. I don’t reject God’s kindness. If we receive God’s approval by obeying laws, then Christ’s death was pointless.Lane Hill Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12952459499802207852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4364617788458228849.post-7009653447306009062012-08-07T08:38:48.587-07:002012-08-07T08:38:48.587-07:00Yes, the same verses definitely moved me as I read...Yes, the same verses definitely moved me as I read this passage today, especially verse 20.Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06596653591301276543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4364617788458228849.post-80426939252869243022012-08-07T05:15:20.259-07:002012-08-07T05:15:20.259-07:00Amen to that!Amen to that!Roseanna Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02245767775900250399noreply@blogger.com
