God's Kind of Life!






At a point in my life,even as a Christian- Christ like! .I always wanted to be for myself,mind my business,serving God, being righteous (I just want to be). I don't like people poking into my business...Abi we are walking towards heaven,come to church say a prayer and we say Amen. In a way,I started building up walls and then self righteousness set in.
If that what's Christ -likeness is all about then when Christ came into the world ,He should be like.."Shebi what Baba want is for me to die on the cross for them,He should just have performed one or two miracles and then go straight to Calvary to die ,then back to heaven to claim His glory,He wouldn't have mingled with people or lives.

But that wasn't the case,we can see how Christ really reflected His life and how He uses it to touch every other persons, People that we claim are not worth it..You know, we that we think we know what we are doing-the self righteous thing,the Pharisee thing .People that we think are not in standard with God at all,we see how Christ was so open to them ,pulling them and His life flowing to them.
THIS IS CHRIST LIKENESS !

If so,why would I want to be for myself?Why should you?

When  Christ wanted a relationship,a fellowship with us and also through us to everyone around us that they might see that indeed we live for Him even in our words and actions.
Let me not claim any right living cause it's fithy rag,Every walls built is for destruction.

As time goes on,when I didn't allow anyone else in,even when I claim to be right with God,I had sins and secret that I could be rid off if only I allowed God's people in .But I keep thinking I could deal with it myself as long as I pray,study the word..as long as "I"..let's pay attention to this letter "I" which signifies "self".
Self will always want to surface.As we go through teachings and processes of growth,and we get to a point we feel we should be able to pray,study on our own,yes! But then we should be conscious just as John said" That He(Christ) must Increase but I(self) must Decrease".



We should always come forth with His Nature of Brokenness!, brokenness as our form of worship and even towards His Word that we might receive from Him. Also knowing that we  have this one person ready to listen ,this person that we give our everyday life account to.
As Christ as said "Unless your righteousness excess that of the Pharisee(self), there's no heaven"  . Then I started having an open mind and light began to shine,By His grace I am rid of all my walls and selfish act.

Christ must be glorified,Christ is our business "Light is not supposed to hidden under a bushel", In our relationship with others we must reflect Christ,His life must not be hidden,we must be open minded as seeing everyone as an extension of God and reach out God's love and life as our stardard.


Christ is God's kind of life.
Let's start living it!

  3. This words right here are just the perfect world I needed to hear this morning. How to decrease so that the Holy Ghost will increase in US. To cut down our walls and not bring other people to the light just like christ did.

  4. Sometimes the things blocking us from becoming who Christ wants us to be,are things we do in our everyday life. Being conscious of self is the first step to freedom
