04/29           Galatians 2:20

“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.”

Key Points:

  1. Spiritual Growth Requires Surrender – We must die to ourselves to live for Christ (Luke 9:23).
  2. Our Identity is Found in Christ – The old self is gone, and we are made new (2 Corinthians 5:17).
  3. Faith is the Foundation of Our New Life – We live by trusting Christ completely (Romans 1:17).
  4. Christ’s Love is the Source of Our Transformation – His sacrifice makes true growth possible (John 15:13).

CHRIST IN ME


No longer bound to what I was,
No longer tied to fleeting things,
For I am held by greater love,
And shaped by hands unseen.


Not by strength, not by will,
But by the life You gave for me,
A love that crushed the weight of sin,
And called me to arise.


I stand not on what I have done,
But on the mercy of the King,
No longer mine, no longer lost,
But found within His grace.


Each day I walk, no fear remains,
For He who lives now walks in me,
And every breath, and every step,
Is led by faith alone.


I have died, yet I live,
Not in me, but Christ in me,
No turning back, no fading love,
For I am His, and He is mine.
