“Let the message about Christ, in all its richness, fill your lives…And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father.” Colossians 3:16-17 NLT
When I know Jesus died for me and was raised to life, when I know I am loved, when I know I’m forgiven, when I know God has chosen me and is preparing a home for me, when I know that I am saved for eternity, when I know He is a very present help in times of trouble, when I know He is my provider, when I know that He has good plans for me and I have all I need in Him…then I am truly rich!! This is the message about Christ that fills my life and that I now represent as a Christian – I get to re-present it – to present Jesus and His message of love and freedom over and over again to those around me through my words and deeds! Lord, I know I’m a work in progress, and I don’t always speak or act in the way that shows the best of who You are, but help me to be that effective representative of Yours today, and continue growing me in my knowledge and trust of You so that more of my life would reflect the riches I have in You. Amen 🙏🏼😊
