That We May Know Him

2 Corinthians 1:5

For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ.

The fruits of our work are the outpouring of the Jesus Christ within us.  Our works are not the proof of our goodness.  They are the proof of our submission to Our Savior in every aspect of our lives.

If our works ever become a way in which we seek to gratify ourselves, they will become a burden that will drag us away from the Cross.  Our works must be an outpouring of our spirit filled love as disciples of Jesus.  Then our works will draw us to the Cross in complete thanksgiving.  Our works will be a comfort to us and to those around us.

Our Christian mindset should not be that there is work to be done and I need to do it.  Our mindsets should be that I am seeking Jesus Christ and His will for me in every single moment of my life.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, we thank You for the indwelling spirit of Jesus in our lives.  We praise the name of Jesus.  He is Our Lord, Our Master and Our King.  We seek to make Him a part of every single moment of our lives.  May everything that we do in life be an expression of His love.
