Shielding from Condemnation

[S] Romans 8:1 --  1Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

[O] I have read this verse many times before but today, my heart was excited to read about having no condemnation from God as long as I'm in Christ Jesus.  It may be because I've trying hard at my role in doing ministry and yet not seeing the fruits yet.  Paul's point of putting the significance in abiding in Christ Jesus and not of works seems to hit the right chord in my heart.

[A] Even before doing the ministry for Jesus, I must be in Him and abide in Him.  That means daily devotion with Him and also to memorize God's words to be engraved into my heart.

[P] Dear God, I praise You for shielding me from condemnation as long as I pursue to be abiding in You because I know there is no way for me to exclude me from You condemnation on my own but I can work on being in You.  Thank You for giving me an option which is achievable by me.
