Christ enables us to live in him all that he himself lived, and he lives it in us.Reflection: The imitation of Christ is the goal of every Christian. But we are meant to be more than just actors, mimicking Christ. We are to be channels, animated by Christ himself, as he lives his life in us. His triumphs, sufferings, his glory and all the graces he possessed, he shares with us when we die to self and allow him to live in us.
- CCC No. 521
Prayer: Thank you for dying for me, dear Jesus. May I live for you. May you live in me.
