It isn't hard to live the Christian Life, It is impossible!!!
Only Christ can give it and only Christ can live it through you!
It's not your life, as much as it is Christ's life in you!
Christ did not only come to get us out of Hell and into Heaven, he came from Heaven to get inside us; that's what being "Born Again " is all about!
"I am the Vine and you are the branches, if you are in me and I in you, you will bare much fruit, with out me you can do nothing"
Too many Christians feel a need to maintain a certain level of performance, works , in order to maintain there salvation or being right with God.
It's not your works but Christ's works through you!
That's why God says that our faith is dead without works.....not our works but his.
So, if you are so inclined, stop trying to work so hard for you to do the right things all the time. Let Christ do his works through you, you will be much happier and very busy!!!
