He doesn't even ask you to be good. He knows you can't. He does ask you to walk with Him, to trust Him, to give your brokenness to Him. You will always fail to 'be like Jesus.' He wants you to let HIM be Jesus, dwelling fully in you...<br /><br />Each day (even all 31 days in the dreaded-August) is a gift from Him and each one is another chance to rest in Him.Brenda Hodgeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07501534615743308802noreply@blogger.com
