Be holy, that is.
...My short answer: I can't. Be holy, that is.<br /><br />(and of course, because where there is a short answer, there is also a long answer):<br /><br />I can't DO anything to be holy. But because God is holy, he can MAKE me holy. Whenever I "try" to do good things, have right thoughts, etc... I screw up royally. I have found the only thing I can actually DO to be holy is to stop doing, stop being... I guess that passage that talks about dying to my self... Where I stop living and allow Jesus to live through me, he produces in me attitudes and thoughts that are obviously not my own. And that "sets me apart" or makes me "other," holy.Jaimee Holmeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06271048684747682957noreply@blogger.com
