Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. (Galatians 5:24-25)
Sounds easy, right? So why do we still have problems, and try to live by the old ways?
I think the problem is that the sinful nature, you know the one we crucified, well it has a tendency to get down off the cross while we’re not looking. Or while we are.
So each day we need to focus on bringing it back to the cross, and leaving it there. It might not stay, but each day we’ll leave a little more of it behind.
Take care today.
One thing Lent has brought to light for me is sin in my life. Flushing out the flesh. I'm learning to continuously bring it back to the cross and confess.
