Jesus, the more we grow in love with Christ on the cross. When our thoughts are saturated with Jesus, so will our lives reflect these thoughts. We will live as he lives with us, in honesty, purity and goodness towards others. We will think of others before we think of ourselves, because that is what Jesus did and it gave him great pleasure in doing so. When our every thought is about God, there is no room for pride, arrogance or disobedience. We willingly want to live our lives in the truth of God’s Word and refine our thoughts continuously, getting closer to the Christian mind-set of loving unconditionally.
With prayer we focus and personalize our love in Christ to magnify our relationship with God. We cry out to him to be accepted into his kingdom of perfection and bliss. Sin becomes an orphan of rejection and has no place to lay his head upon our heart. There is no other existence obtainable with deeper meaning than our purpose of loving God with our every thought and allowing our lives to be consumed in his righteousness. |
