Seeking to Follow Jesus

Reflections - May 28th - June 3rd

5/28/2017

“My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me.”             Galatians 2:20 NLT

Do you ever struggle with the certainty that the Christ in you is seen by others in the things you say and do?

How can I be more consistent in reflecting Christ living in me? I need to maintain a walk so close with Christ that I am constantly reminded of His presence in my life.

Then it becomes a matter of trust. Trusting in Jesus that He can live through me and guide my choices and decisions better than I can. 

“Trust in the Lord with all you heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek His will in all you do, and He will show you which path to take.” Proverbs 3:5-6 NLT

Bro. Joe

Questions for Reflection:
  1. Do others see Jesus in me?
  2. Does everything I do and say reflect Christ in me?
  3. What needs to change in my life to better reflect Jesus?

This Weeks Suggested Readings:
    Sunday - Colossians 3:1-17
    Monday - Galatians 5:16-24
    Tuesday - 1 Corinthians 13
    Wednesday - Genesis 23
    Thursday - 2 Corinthians 5:11-21
    Friday - Galatians 2:20
    Saturday - Ephesians 4:17-31

Lord, I want my life to reflect the Jesus in me. Thank you for allowing me to be your representative. Forgive me when I have failed. Help me to better show others the Christ in me. Today, I choose to die to self and ask you to live through me. “He must become greater and greater, and I must become less and less.” John 3:30 NLT       Amen
