Now that you have given yourself to Jesus, do not draw back, do not take yourself away from Him, but day by day say, “I am Christ’s; I have given myself to Him;” and ask Him to give you His Spirit, and keep you by His grace. As it is by giving yourself to God, and believing Him, that you become His child, so you are to live in Him. The apostle says, “As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him.” Colossians 2:3. {FLB 141.4}

Nu da du har givet dig selv til Jesus, så træk dig ikke tilbage, tag ikke dig selv bort fra Ham, men sig dag for dag: ”Jeg er Kristus’es, jeg har givet mig selv til Ham”, og bed Ham om at give dig Sin Ånd, og hold dig hos Hans nåde. Sådan som det er at give dig selv til Gud, og tro på ham, at du bliver Hans barn, således skal du leve i Ham. Apostlen siger: ”Når I nu har taget imod Kristus Jesus, Herren, så lev i ham.” Kol. 2,6.
