“To live is Christ” means no more wondering what is the meaning of life. It is Christ. Our worthy Lamb. It is living for his glory as his co-regents on earth. Someday? Yes. Today? Yes. Every day? By his grace.
December 25, 2020. Day 360: I am the Alpha and the Omega.
“To live is Christ” is to be found in this cosmic Christ. The one who is the beginning and end of all things. Anything less is too small a view of Christ. Anything less than an Alpha and Omega will never sustain us. It might give us a nice holiday, but not a lifetime of living water. In the suffering of life we must begin and end with Jesus, for all things begin and end with him.

Just perfect love allowing us to both take responsibility for our lives, and, at the same time to turn our lives over to Jesus. The one with all glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen.
December 22, 2020. Day 357: We are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ.
