Learning to live by the indwelling life of Christ.
“To live is Christ” is to live each day within this revelation of Jesus Christ. Our loving Lord. Our sanctifying savior. Our commissioning Christ. Look down and see him in a manger laid, your humble savior. Look up and see him coming with the clouds of heaven, your glorious king.
“To live is Christ” allows us to live this blameless life. No more blame means no more blame shifting. No more excuses or cover ups. 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.
“To live is Christ” means we are a part of the greatest conquest of all time – the victory of Christ Jesus over the world.
From God’s perfect love may we see love perfected in us. May we love sacrificially without fear. May we love humbly yet boldly. May we love because we are loved. May we “to live is Christ.”
“To live is Christ” is to know you are loved by Love. And then it is to love. To love one another freely and fully as those in whom God’s love is being perfected IN US as we learn more and more each day to trust his love FOR US.
God knows you’re his child. He knows you’re righteous. He knows you’re alive in Christ. He knows the real you, and loves you anyway. So go live your life boldly before him. Because “to live is Christ.”
To Live is Christ
