Habits. Quirks. Traits. Work Ethics. All words and phrases we use to try to describe not only “who” we are, but to get at “what we do and why we do it.” We know, by faith and by the Spirit’s witness in us, the “who” of our identity: in Christ, we belong to Him – body and soul, life and death – to our faithful Savior. That same faith and Spirit’s witness, however, goes beyond just the “who” to “what we were made to do and why we do it.” The transformed, Spirit-filled life is not an idle enterprise of biding our time till Jesus returns. The Spirit’s power is a compelling force of life change in every sphere. Are we fully engaged … does our “who” match our “what we do and why we do it”? Let’s talk about that this week.
