The Him in Me

There are three great powers in the universe, I am told: God, satan and the human mind. God creates and destroys; satan destroys; humans basically can receive the truth and act upon it or just screw everything up. When God created us, He created us in His image. We were whole, holy, and healthy. Unfortunately when we chose the apple over obedience, we became like satan--unwhole, unholy, and unhealthy. It is only through the shedding of the blood of God's Son that we can regain the image of God. Only through the wooing of God's Holy Spirit can we turn to Him for our salvation. The beauty of this operation is that Jesus is in God, we are in Jesus and that becomes a Trinity of holiness. We play a part in the work of salvation. We enter His presence through our worship and He enters our life through the work of grace. The Him in me is the Hymn in me: Jesus love me, this I know!
