I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me. (Galatians 2:20)
When you put your faith in Christ, His death on the cross covers your sin. Jesus sacrificed His life to give you life. You are forgiven. Once you have been forgiven of your sins, you are free to live a new life. Jesus will come into your life.
Live by faith in the Son of God, and God will give you the strength to live the Christian life. Read and meditate on this verse regularly to be reminded of the truth—that Christ lives in you and that God will give you the strength to live this new life. ~ Jeff M Newman
