A strengthening reminder for me

Paul began his great letter to the Romans by identifying himself not in terms of what he had accomplished, but in terms of God's work in his life.

Christ had bought him and now owns him and rules him.

It is what Christ did to him, not what he did, that is first.

(from a Dr. Piper sermon, 1998)
