What do we have that we have not received?
All we have is given to us by God.
Our breath, our bodies, our souls, our thoughts.
All of reality—all we experience—teaches us our utter dependence on the Lord Jesus,
not our autonomy from him.
This dependence is not a curse.
We are made to belong with and to one another.
Christ receives only to give away,
he merits only to share.
What do we have that we have not received?
