Week 1: CHRIST IN YOU
Day 4: Understanding What Has Happened to You
TODAY'S READING:
II Corinthians 5:17, Colossians 1:21-22, 27
As you develop your Quiet Time you will see changes. II Corinthians 5:17 (NLT) explains some of these changes. Read the verse and fill in the blanks.
"This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!"
Your ________________ life is passing away.
Your _________________ life is beginning.
All of these changes are made by ____________________________.
Yes, Christ makes the difference between your old and new life.
Read Colossians 1:21-22 (NLT) and fill in the blanks.
"This includes you who were once far away from God. You were his enemies, separated from him by your evil thoughts and actions. Yet now he has reconciled you to himself through the death of Christ in his physical body. As a result, he has brought you into his own presence, and you are holy and blameless as you stand before him without a single fault."
What was your attitude about God before you accepted Christ and became a Christian?

Because you and God were enemies, you did things that were ___________________________
Now you are learning that some things you did when you were not a Christian are no fun. God is changing you! He is making you

Holy means you are reserved for God's use and no one else's. II Corinthians 5:17 explains that a different way.
Read Colossians 1:27 (NLT).
"For God wanted them to know that the riches and glory of Christ are for you Gentiles, too. And this is the secret: Christ lives in you. This gives you assurance of sharing his glory."
Where is Christ now? __________________________________________________________
Remember discussing the hand? Write what the palm of the hand is ____________________
It's the journey ... not the destination. ... The journey ... my eyes were opened and I knew Him and my heart was changed. ... Won't you join me in my travels, meandering here and there, journeying within my mind and beyond, on paths great and small, through this world that was created by and belongs to the Lord God Almighty.
