A Needed Word
“Jesus Christ must be our passion and priority. We must aspire to both know Him and love Him more fully. We must long to see Him ‘come to have first place in everything’ (Col. 1:18). To miss this is to miss everything and to never get out of the starting blocks. (We) need to become more than ever ‘a Jesus intoxicated people,’ returning to our first love. (Rev. 2:4-5). A Christ-centered life must, and it will, inform our theology and inspire our missional service. We must love Him, worship Him, adore Him, exult in Him, share Him and exemplify Him…When the world thinks of us, they should think first, ‘those are the folks in love with Jesus. They are the people obsessed with Jesus. There is a people that talk and act and serve and love like Jesus.”’
May it be so in my life and yours.
