Christ in our Lives
“You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.” Psalm 16:11 (NIV)
Without the Lord Jesus Christ in your life you will likely feel aimless, unsure of your purpose, and never satisfied. Yes, followers of the Lord do have moments and seasons of grappling to make sense of life, but we have an over-arching peace as we know to run back to Calvary. With Christ in your life there is a stronghold of security and a joy that always hopes beyond the happenings of this world.
Do not wait until you have achieved contentment or arrive at some predetermined spiritual indicator before you allow Christ into your life, because that is putting the cart before the horse. Allow the Lord to lead and you will have these things.
Let’s pray today to keep Jesus close in our lives as we seek Him daily through prayer and Scripture.
