Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
When we become Christians, we have declared we want to give up our old lives and live a new life with Christ.
This does not mean we have literally gone to hang on the cross with Christ, but have accepted that He has done that for us.
He gave us the Holy Spirit to live within us at that moment we accepted these ways; a spirit who will guide us every step of the way is we listen!
Leave the wants of the physical world behind and focus on the spiritual requests from God!
