God Wants You

Good Morning!! There is nothing good in any of us,...apart from God. It is His perfect characteristics, working through us, that make any difference. Being Christ-like is not simply try to do things to imitate Jesus,...we must allow Him to be in us, and His love, to love through us. It has to be genuinely Christ and not us. Jesus' life on Earth was a reflection of the Father. It was His holiness, purity and love, which overflowed into the lives of those that were hurting. He brought healing and comfort to those who encountered Him.

If we love one another, God dwelleth in us and his love is perfected in us. —1 John 4:12-13 (NIV)

What motivates any of us to serve God? Is it a duty?...or is it because we desire an intimate relationship with Him, and for His love to abide within us? Can we love with His love? All we do that is pure, holy, right and good is from God. HE created us for Himself, and He desires a relationship with us. This has opened the door for us to love Him for all He is,...all He has done,...and all He will do.

The more you know of the Lord, the more you will love Him.  
Each day is a new opportunity for us to express our love to Him, and to let His love overflow from our lives to others.

To be Christ like we must allow Christ to dwell within us; His patience, His love, His holiness, His faith, His purity; all revealing themselves through our lives, daily.

The proof that you love Jesus is reflected in the love that you show one another."
