Philippians 2:13 For it is God who works in you to will and to act on behalf of His good purpose.
God is so gracious. He not only saves you, but He also guides you in how to live and gives you the strength to walk according to His good purpose. Paul the Apostle teaches that God is actively working in believers through the Holy Spirit, shaping both their desires and their actions.
God does not leave you on your own to figure out the Christian life by yourself. He empowers you to obey Him and to accomplish the things He calls you to do.
If you are feeling weak today, remember that God is faithfully at work within you. As you abide in Jesus Christ and walk by the Spirit, God continues transforming your heart and helping you live according to His will and good purpose. Lean on Him completely and trust that He is actively working in your life. ~ Jeff M Newman
