Wow, I've had some incredible moments in the last 5 days. The past weeks have again shown me just how huge our God really is. His incredible insistence on loving me and showing me Himself remains quite humbling, but quite humbly I accept! Training others to become church planters--how? SHOW THEM CHRIST! Leading others into relationships with the Savior--how? SHOW THEM CHRIST! When I look around and see "Christians" walking around with gloomy faces and bitter, negative attitudes, I wonder why. "Little Christs"--that's why they call us Christians. Think about it--Scripture says: "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me." If I just keep on living life the same old way I always lived, can I really say that? People ask me why I smile...they ask me why I don't get angry...they ask me what would convince me to leave my family and my country and live in a foreign land. GALATIANS 2:20!!! It's not me anymore--IT'S HIM! Oh, yes, I will fall down from time to time and have to wipe off the grime so He is seen again, but HE LIVES IN ME!
Ok, enough of the sermon. Consider it, though. Are you living a life that just seeps with His presence? Is the joy in the difficult times overshadowing the sorrow? Are the unanswered questions just a little less nagging on your brain? If not, approach Him. Know Him. LIVE Him.
