To live is Christ is to live in joy. Not to the exclusion of sorrow, the two can and must co-exist. But in the midst of sorrow choosing to rejoice in the hope of the glory of Christ breaking through like sunrise beams in our hearts.
Learning to live by the indwelling life of Christ.

To live is Christ is to constantly evaluate your worship. Not so that we can remove good things from our lives (the asceticism of the Colossians), but so that we can allow these good things to point to the best thing – the love of Christ for us and in us.
Are you in Christ? If you are then you will welcome the purifying love of Christ to the Earth. Just as his love is inevitably yet painfully removing impurity in you today, it will one day painfully remove all impurity from the entire universe. To live is Christ both welcomes this and warns of this.
