Your resources

Last summer, me and my wife took a trip to Virginia.  We were on a tight budget, so we carefully planned for the trip, not wanting to spend a cent more than necessary.  The wife packed meals for us to each every day.  We stayed in a nice hotel, but ate all their meals in our room.  At the end of the week, as they checked out of the hotel, we learned that the hotel had been offering a special that week--lunch at the hotel restaurant had been included in the price of the room!!!!  Are you kidding me??  We had missed out on having free lunches because we were unaware of the resources that was available to us. 

Many Christians live their lives the same way.  They've never considered the resources that are available to them in Christ, so they fail to take advantage of the privileges that belong to them.  The result?  They live like non-believers......

As Christians, we have some wonderful privileges that are available to us.  God has give us the Holy Spirit.  And He comes and dwells inside us and gives us power, peace, and all the resources we need to get through the day.
