Does your life look like you are a follower of
Jesus? Remember He offers the abundant, Spirit-filled life. He offers grace
upon grace and we move from glory to glory reflecting His image in
ever-increasing ways. The “more” and “even more” of Jesus is available 24/7 to
those who love Him.
He
has saved us and called us to a holy life-not because of anything we have done
but because of His own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ
Jesus before the beginning of time. 1 Timothy 1:9
I
have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.
The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved
me and gave Himself for me. Galatians 2:20
The
reflection of Jesus may show an inner peace, a deep joy in spite of
circumstances, a patient heart or a generous soul. The people around you may
need a dose of Jesus. Could it be you? Can you represent Him? The angriest,
most critical, most arrogant people you know need Him the most. You may not
think they deserve Jesus.
Neither
did we.
Dear Father,
You love us all right where we are. Change us into
Your image with the help of Your Spirit. The abundant life is filled with the
giving and receiving of God’s blessings. It’s how life works in the realm of
the Holy Spirit. We don’t get it, but we want it.
In Jesus name
Amen
