A Daily Devotional About struggling to have our
God within: Deuteronomy 4:7 What other
nation is so great as to have their gods near them the way the LORD our God is
near us whenever we pray to him? (NIV) Living with
God so He is alive in your heart can be an enormous struggle. Having to struggle
to keep God alive, moving, and dynamic within you is not something many people
would wish to admit. The truth is�we all struggle to have God alive within us
because we run our spiritual lives on faith. To live by faith, not by sight, is
difficult. Living by faith is difficult because we cannot see God with our eyes.
In addition, we have a great adversary who attacks us in our heart. Living a
full spiritual life demands we give up on one hand and not give up on the other.
On one hand, we are to release the grip darkness has upon us. On the other hand
we are not to give up feeling and knowing our Lord is real within us. On one
hand, we are to give up our sin because Christ died for us. On the other hand we
are not to give up our self-imposed demand to live a clean, moral, and righteous
life. However, no matter how difficult living by faith might seem to be, we can
have Christ's love alive and living within us. |
