Christ in You

How easily you doubt the veracity of the gift you have been given. God's voice channels through your mind, and the vernacular that results seems an unlikely expression for the Most Holy God. Do not doubt Christ in you. The piquant tone your voice lends to the truths He speaks through you does not diminish the truth itself. The Lord  cannot be contained or channeled through a human vessel, but when you are  yielded to Him, you become an instrument in His hand. The melody of your words is the result of the virtuosity of the master musician; Mozart played on a harmonica is still Mozart!

You are a unique and beautiful instrument that each day is being conformed more and more into His likeness. When you are perfected, you will be uniquely beautiful; a lovely expression of the creativity and love of your Lord and God. 

Scripture:  "To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory" (Colossians 1:27).
