Major Ian Thomas...Again

More from the book I've been reading:

"To be wholly and completely and exclusively dependent on Christ's competence--that is the Christian Life. It is not just the monopoly of the few, nor is it the privilege only of God's special favorites. It is the Life for which you were redeemed. Christ's precious blood was shed to reconcile you to God, so that Christ, now risen from the dead, migh share His resurrection Life with you.

It does not mean you will avoid pressures and threats and discomforts, but you can know that in every situation you have the complete, total, and absolute answer..in Christ, our Life. He is the answer.

To live a life less than this is to miss the whole point of your redemption."

For some reason...

...today...

...I feel like I miss at the very least part of my redemption if not the whole point.
