The Trinity is in You*

*This post is for those who have received Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. If you have not, the following does not apply to you. But, please, read Becoming a Child of God.

The Trinity is in you, believer in Christ!

God is in you. Christ is in you. The Holy Spirit–the Spirit of God and the Spirit of Christ–is in you.

Almighty, sovereign, infinite, awesome God is in you, in me. This is so amazing, so beyond comprehension, it doesn’t seem true, but is true.

No wonder we are called a new creation. No wonder that Christ promises He will never leave us.

What would happen for us, living our lives, if we knew, really knew, that God is in us? Our lives would change for sure.

Let’s try to fathom this, as best we can, meditate on the truth of it, appropriate His presence in our lives. And press on with joy.

Father, please help us see the reality that the Trinity is in us.* Help us be conscious of Your presence. Help us rely on Your presence, apply Your presence to our thoughts, words, and deeds. Thank You for loving us.
