The Christian life is not about our own capacity and ability, but about God’s; not about who we are, but who He is; not about what we have to offer, but what He offers, which is all of Himself, if only we are as available to Christ as Christ was available to His Father. All of the Father was available to all of the Son, because by His faith-love relationship, all of the Son was available to all of the Father; this is what constituted His perfect Manhood. In the same way, the availability of the Son to you will be experienced to the degree of your availability to the Son, because of your faith-love relationship to Him. All that God gives, which is all that you need, He gives to you in Christ, “that no flesh should glory in His presence. But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God—and righteousness and sanctification and redemption” (1 Corinthians 1:29-30).”
