As most of you know, my good friend Tim passed away a little over a year ago. His absence still leaves a substantial hole in my heart. The depth of our friendship was such that we shared our locations with each other via the telephone app Find My Friends.

The other day I happened to open the Find My Friends app and saw this message with regard to Tim: NO LOCATION FOUND.

I thought about that for a few moments and then I heard myself say out loud to my phone, “No, you’re wrong! He has gained Christ and has been FOUND IN HIM, not having a righteousness of his own… but a righteousness which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith!” Phil 3:8-9

Isn’t that a glorious truth? No matter how many wrong turns we have taken in this life, no matter how lost we’ve become, if we have put our faith in Christ’s righteousness—rather than our own—we are and will be FOUND IN CHRIST.

Revel in this!
