In the moment you and I choose the wrong option more often than we would like to admit, don’t we? We say the unkind words, think the selfish ideas, act on our old desires, choose to yield to temptation, and forget that we really do have the option of “living in the Spirit.” Because I am “united with THE ONE who was raised from the dead”, I, too, can live life in a completely new way. Oh, Lord, today, by Your Spirit, help me to remember the reality of these truths. Help me to experience in those moments the “power of life-giving Spirit.”
