đŁ Saturday â Participation (Union with Christ)
Truth:You do not live from yourselfâyou live by participation in Christ.
Micro-Teaching:At the level of being, the Christian life is not improvementâit is participation. You are not an independent self trying to align with God. You are united to Christ, and your life is now lived from Him. That means what is true of Him becomes the source of your life. His righteousness, His life, His standing before the Fatherâthis is not external to you. This is what you are now living from.
Youâve felt the pull to go back to living from yourself. Trying to generate clarity, strength, or even spiritual progress like it depends on you. Thatâs the old way of being. Participation cuts through that. Youâre not the source trying to reach Godâyou are in Christ, and life is flowing from that union whether you feel it or not. The shift is not trying harder. Itâs seeing more clearly. You act, move, and live as one who is already joined to Him, not as one trying to become something youâre not.
Practice:Pause today and consciously acknowledge: I am in Christ, and my life is coming from Him.
Reflection:Where am I slipping back into trying to live from myself instead of from union with Christ?
Word of the Day:Participation â sharing in the life of Christ as one who is united to Him.
A FREE companion course connected to the themes of Because He Is, We Are will be available here soon.
