Maturity in Jesus is a stubborn mission. Yesterday my heart was troubled. I went to God. He showed me a good thing that I had unwittingly let become an idol. I repented. Is there no end to this? No, not in this life. "In but not of" means Jesus doesn't want to take us out of the world; He wants to take the world out of us. He's not just giving us abundant life; He's making us holy. PS: Heart working just fine today. Reminder to self: Be sure to thank Him for intervening right away.
