Today's meditation is taken from:

IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE!
by Chip Brogden



:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

"Stir up the gift of God, which is in you" (II Timothy 1:16).

How will He do it? How will He demonstrate the sufficiency of His
Life to do everything in your stead? Why, the next time you feel your
temper getting out of control, or the person you resent is bothering
you, or things are not going right, or you are tempted to quit,
decide that instead of reacting the way you always do, you will trust
in His Life, then stand back and just see what happens.

If you are a Christian the Life is there, it just has to be stirred
up into activity. The things we call temptations, testings, and
trials are the very means through which God desires to activate the
Life He has placed within you! How else would we be able to rejoice
in our afflictions? How else would we be able to count it all joy
when we fall into many temptations and trials of faith? Humanly
speaking this is impossible! But what is impossible with man is
possible with God, and easily achievable when we trust in His Life to
do what we cannot do.
