Christ in You
Subject: Holy Spirit

Benjamin West, a great painter, speaking of Gilbert Stuart, a brother artist famed for his beautiful coloring, used to say to his pupils, “It’s no use to steal Stuart’s colors; if you want to paint as he does, you must steal his eyes.”

When we are baffled in our efforts to live as Christ lived, the record of His life, however wonderful it is, will not enable us to be like Him. What we need is His heart, His nature. Only divinity within us can recognize divinity without. Without the Holy Spirit, we cannot know Him as God.
