In Jesus We Trust

In my devotional reading this week was the following selection from George A. Maloney.  I thought it so captured what we would like our lives to be as they continue to be transformed. 

“To the degree that we Christians surrender ourselves freely to the leadership of Jesus Christ through the mystical oneness we enjoy with him and in him, to that degree we can say we are Christians, living members of his body.  We will know experientially that we live in his light by the gentle love we have toward each person whom we meet in each moment. 

Thus we will be led from moment to moment into greater light as we see, by increased faith, hope and love, God’s loving presence in all events.  Complete abandonment and childlike trust are the Holy Spirit’s gifts to those who are ready to die to their false selves and begin to live in the truth of the new creatures that they are and have always been in the eyes of the heavenly Father.”
