To be dispensational vessels to desire for the Lord’s return
In the English intensive program this week,we practiced speaking in English during the class.Every members was assigned to the proper class according to their English level. At the beginning of the class, I was clear inside that the class level was beyond my ability. But I was reminded that the motivation of language learning is that we love the Lord. We love the Body of Christ and we have the desire to propagate the gospel to the whole earth for the Lord. So I renewed my consecration. Even if I cannot perform well, I am willing to seize the opportunity to be perfected by the Lord.
In one of the meetings, we shared the footnotes we have enjoyed. Galatians 2:20 says” I am crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but it is Christ who lives in me;” In footnote 2 it says,『 No longer I does not indicate an exchanged life, a life in which Christ comes in and we go out. The old, terminated ”I” was without divinity, the new “I” has God as life added to it. The new” I “came into being when the old ” I “was resurrected and God was added to it. It was in Paul that Christ lived. Therefore, Christ and Paul, had one life and one living.』
The Lord reminds me, my efforts should not be based on my own natural life, but it should be “no longer I”.So that I can have the same life and the same living with Christ.
