And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you. Romans 8:11 NIV
I don't know why but when i read this verse my spirit rejoices and is calm at the same time. Read it again and see if you feel the same way. Take in these words. The spirit that raised Jesus from the dead lives in you. Lives in me. Gives life to our mortal bodies. As tired and sick and busy as I've been the past few weeks, I feel at this moment like I could run a marathon.
God grants us the wisdom to gain wealth and his spirit brings life to our bodies. He refreshes our soul with living water. His body was broken for our sins and his blood washes us clean. He ensures we have all we need and heals us when we are sick. As I put all this together it calms my spirit and makes my heart rejoice.
There is nothing I need fear. He is everything. Amen.
