Galatians 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me : and the life I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
When I accepted Jesus as my Savior, I was in a sense, crucified with Him. I am dead to my old sinful self and alive with new life in Christ. (Which is what baptism signifies.) I am still alive, but now Christ is living in me and directing my life – if I allow Him. Now I live by faith, faith that Christ will do a good work in and through me. (Philippians 1:6)
Christ died so I could live! He loved me while still a sinner and He loves me now. Praise His name!
