How do you be in it but not of it?
Posted by thomas | Filed under devotion, hillspowerhouse
I was just thinking about the topic that we are tackling at Powerhouse Central these days, “Our City - In it, not of it”.
Have you ever thought about the privilege it is to be found in salvation? Not only do we have this MASSIVE honour of being saved but God has also called us. No matter where you might find yourself in life; you are not only there as a saved person, which immediately sets you apart in terms of VALUE but you are also there as a called person, which sets you apart in terms of PURPOSE.
But I don’t know about you but it’s not always easy being different. How do we live it out? Sometimes the bar seems so high… Sometimes it just seems too hard… How do we do it? And how do we do it without breaking under the stress of striving? And what role does Grace play in the middle of all of this?
John Calvin said, “…it is a faculty of the reason and the will to choose good with the assistance of grace; evil, when grace is absent.”
How do you find being in the world but not of it??
I would love to hear from you,
Thomas
