DAILY?READINGS: Joshua 1; Hosea 8-9; Luke 19:29-48
That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith. Ephesians 3:17a
All the dwelling places of God show His desire to be close to His people. He walked in the Garden of Eden, camped in the Tabernacle through the wilderness, and dwelt in the Temple at Jerusalem. Still closer, He became flesh and dwelt among us. He went through death and by the wonder of His resurrection He has come even closer. He now dwells in us! Think of it, heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain Him, yet He lives within my heart! The believer’s heart is Christ’s home. Is He at home in your heart? —Rex Trogdon
With longing all my heart is filled, that like Him I may be,
As on the wondrous thought I dwell that Christ liveth in me.
Christ liveth in me, Christ liveth in me,
Oh! What a salvation this, that Christ liveth in me. —D. W. Whittle
