FCA Missions 2011-Mexico

23 Jun

Upon leaving Mexico this year I thought about all the Holy Spirit had taught us throughout the week.  There have been so many mission trips that I have been impacted by the Holy Spirit, God’s Word, and Jesus through what I experienced each week, but went back home, backslid into old habits.  I now see that it’s because I wasn’t resting in the finished work of Jesus Christ.  I was still trying to earn my salvation by impressing God with how ‘good’ I was.  The truth is that God sees Jesus when He looks at us.  That’s why the scriptures say that we are “…the righteousness of God.”  To help address the issues that get at my heart and cause me to forget the gospel of Jesus Christ and what He has done for me, I made this up to look at everyday.  It’s a collaboration of ideas, questions, and sermons I’ve heard from Tullian, Davis, Driscoll, and generally what the Holy Spirit has been teaching me this year.  Hope this will help you orient your hearts to Christ, rest in Him, and then do good works already prepared in Him for God’s glory and your good.
