But in order to successfully do that, Paul tells us that we’re to be participators in His death.
And so to experience the power found in a life raised with Him, we must consciously choose all manner of cross-carrying. And that’s found in living like Jesus. It’s found in our:
- self denial
- our readiness to suffer
- our patients in trials
- our meekness and gentleness
- our forbearing attitude
- our radical forgiveness.
We cannot experience resurrected life until we’ve participated in resignated death.
