If the reality of Christ "in" me is a genuine encounter and not just a verse we try to believe, then our salvation, in part, is fed by His life (Romans 5:10). Why is so hard to be "real"? Because people have so often proven themselves to be untrustworthy. Be real with the One who already knows us inside and out, and allow His reality to spill over in your life. In such fashion, He leads us and works out the wrinkles as we go......and you're pretty good with the verse, my friend...
