When I’m not spending enough time with Jesus, I tend to live “outside” of Christ. I’m left to my own devices, my own way of thinking and doing things, life’s more tricky on my own.
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
Colossians 3:16
Ann and I were talking this morning about being “in” Christ, about letting Him guide every moment of our day and what a blessing it is when we let Him take the lead in our conversations, our marriage, our work, our relationships with others, our thought life and emotions. Cooperating with the Holy Spirit each day by letting Christ dwell in our lives makes life so much more enjoyable. It helps us to be better listeners, more understanding of others, to be more compassionate, loving and patient, calms us down and keeps us focused on Jesus.
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly…Such sweet words of life.
God bless,
Mark
