✦ MADE SIMPLE

But you're not living by your old patterns anymore — you're living by the Spirit, as long as God's Spirit actually lives in you. Here's the thing though: if someone doesn't have Christ's Spirit in them, they don't actually belong to him.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

It's not about trying harder — it's about having God's Spirit actually living inside you.
