A Capsule of Wisdom:

One of the great counterfeits to living like Jesus is living in Christian autonomy-- trying to be like Him without Him.

Here in this context of autonomy, I mean: self- reliant. To many that suceed in other areas of life,  the tendency is to rely on self while the Bible teaches a life of dependence-- on Him.

Jesus said," apart from Me you can do nothing."

My fingers cannot move unless God sustains,guides and moves them.

The illusion of self is just that--an illusion. But generally a necessary illusion that we perpetuate. But God in His mercy, helps to sustain. To become more like Jesus,we need to pray without much ceasing, an authentic conversation carried out between you and Christ.

Open your heart and mind and 'speak' with a kind of reverence yet speak to Him. Anytime and anywhere. No rules but reverence. Are you anxious,are you angry,speak to Him. Are you unsure,tell Him. Are you happy,tell Him how much you appreaciate Him.

Tell Him!
