Contrary to what I like to believe, I am not wise nor creative, not favoured nor charismatic. It all comes from He who lives in me, without whom I am and have nothing.
My flaws are numerous and extremely prominent. They far outnumber the minuscule ounces of goodness I possess. Yet where sin abounds, grace greatly abounds, and I find myself made whole and totally perfect in Christ’s completion.
Each day Jesus lives in me is each day I grow in wisdom and stature, favoured by God and man. I am blessed with mercy and strength, touched with discipline and commitment, yet imbued with compassion and love.
For truly no one can make me who I am but God. And because I am righteous by Jesus’ sacrifice, I am given full justification and righteousness, ensuring that I deserve the perfection God has laid out for me to collect.
I am nothing and nothing good comes out of my being. Any good that emerges comes from within where Jesus lives, and I proclaim that all glory goes to God and God alone.
