Listen what's in Hebrews.
Hebrews 2:9
9 What we actually see is Jesus, after being made temporarily inferior to the angels (and so subject to pain and death), in order that he should, in God's grace, taste death for every man, now crowned with glory and honour. It was right and proper that in bringing many sons to glory, God (from whom and by whom everything exists) should make the leader of their salvation a perfect leader through the fact that he suffered. For the one who makes men holy and the men who are made holy share a common humanity. So that he is not ashamed to call them his brothers, for he says: 'I will declare your name to my brethren; in the midst of the congregation I will sing praise to you'.
13 And again, speaking as a man, he says: 'I will put my trust in him'. And, one more instance, in these words: 'Here am I and the children whom God has given me'.
14 Since, then, "the children" have a common physical nature as human beings, he also became a human being, so that by going through death as a man he might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil; and might also set free those who lived their whole lives a prey to the fear of death. It is plain that for this purpose he did not become an angel; he became a man, in actual fact a descendant of Abraham. It was imperative that he should be made like his brothers in nature, if he were to become a High Priest both compassionate and faithful in the things of God, and at the same time able to make atonement for the sins of the people. For by virtue of his own suffering under temptation he is able to help those who are exposed to temptation.

This week was a week where I felt the pressure to make somethings happen, and the anxiety of failing to do so. I felt like I had to do more with my time. I felt the anxiety of wasting time sitting around while there was so much left to be done. I was running away from failure instead of running full of grace and peace. I forgot what's true about my life. Today, I felt the need to remember. I needed to remember that I am dead. Dead to law-based thoughts or feelings that bring any consequence besides God's grace.

It's all right there in Galatians 2:19-21.

19 So far as the Law is concerned, however, I am dead—killed by the Law itself—in order that I might live for God. I have been put to death with Christ on his cross, 20 so that it is no longer I who live, but it is Christ who lives in me. This life that I live now, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave his life for me. --Good News translation

So, what does it mean that I have been put to death? Paul, in Ephesians 2, tells us what it means. He lifted me right out of the life under the tyranny of "it's always been this way" or "you'll never be good enough" or "your success depends on you alone". He lifted me out and seated me with Christ.

Ephesians 2:4

4 But even though we were dead in our sins God, who is rich in mercy, because of the great love he had for us, gave us life together with Christ- it is, remember, by grace and not by achievement that you are saved- and has lifted us right out of the old life to take our place with him in Christ in the Heavens. Thus he shows for all time the tremendous generosity of the grace and kindness he has expressed towards us in Christ Jesus. It was nothing you could or did achieve- it was God's gift to you. No one can pride himself upon earning the love of God. The fact is that what we are we owe to the hand of God upon us. We are born afresh in Christ, and born to do those good deeds which God planned for us to do.

"It is no longer I who live": what an absurd statement! Who can logically explain this truth so fundamental to our life in Christ? "well, I'm alive, but I'm not really. I breathe and touch and speak, but I'm dead..." for anyone who has not experienced the presence of God's Holy Spirit, that may sound like utter nonsense. Yet it is the existence that I enjoy. My senses, reactions, snap judgements no longer dictate the reality that I respond to.  There is someone who takes up this body with me. Christ is using my body, mind, soul and spirit.  He has a way to respond that comes from heaven, and is not necessarily what I'm used to.

"It is Christ who lives in me." Wait. Christ lives in me? What are the implications of this person resident in my body?  It means I don't make my life. I don't make my marriage. I don't make my parenthood. I don't make my career. I don't have a choice except to be the recipient of Christ in me. I rely fully on his personality. The best thing is that there is no bad thing in His personality.  He is full of mercy.  He is full of grace.  He IS love.  That means first that I cannot escape being the recipient of Mercy, Grace, Love, Peace, Joy.  When I remember who is in me, I am not lacking in anything.  My heart is full! I have what it takes to respond to everyone and every situation with confidence, patience, grace.

What's more, the FULL, unequivocal power of God is available to all who believe in Christ.  The same power He used to raise Jesus from the dead is at work in my life.  No endeavor in my life is void of the overshadowing of God himself.
