We sing the words in church many Sundays. We wear it on our t-shirts. We talk all the time about how much we just love Jesus. Really? You love Jesus? Does your life prove it?!
I can’t speak for everyone–and I certainly am not perfect and do not always do as I should in this matter either–but I personally am tired of “Christians” who are so “in love with Jesus” and yet they’re not willing to give anything for Him.
So you love Him? What are you willing to give up for Him? Are you ready to give up your job? your house? your life? Think hard. You might at first say “sure”…but really think about it. Just how much do you love Him?
So many times we say “I love you Jesus and you can have this here and maybe even this…but I like this right here. You wouldn’t ask for that…right?” He wants your all! He knows what’s best for you. He wants you to place your whole entire life in His hands. Are you willing…no matter the cost?
We as Christians should be saying…
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
Galatians 2:20
crucify- to destroy the strength, vitality, or functioning of
Are you “crucified with Christ?” Have you given Him every aspect of your life? Every aspect of your day? Does He have all of you?
My hands are having nerve issues and shakin…thus making it hard to type ha ha. So I’m gonna have to cut short this blog. Maybe I will type some more about this later, but it’s driving me insane typing like this at the moment.
