Living for Christ

Living for Christ

• To live is Christ, and to die is Gain- [quote]For I live in eager expectation and hope that I will never do anything that causes me shame, but that I will always be bold for Christ, as I have been in the past, and that my life will always honor Christ, whether I live or die. [b] four to me, living is for Christ, and dying is even better.[/b] Yet if I live, that means fruitful service for Christ. I really don't know which is better. I'm torn between two desires: sometimes I want to live, and sometimes I long to go and be with Christ. That would be far better for me, but it is better for you that I live. - Philippians 1:20-24[/quote]
• The World is Crucified unto Me- [quote]As for me, God forbid that I should boast about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. Because of that cross, my interest in this world died long ago, and the world's interest in me is also long dead. It doesn't make any difference now whether we've been circumcised or not. What counts is whether we really have been changed into new and different people. May God's mercy and peace be upon all those who live by this principle. They are the new people of God. - Galatians 6:14-16[/quote]
• The Body of Christ- "Therefore I, a prisoner for serving the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of your calling, for you have been called by God. Be humble and gentle.
• Rooted in Christ- "My goal is that they will be encouraged and knit together by strong ties of love. I want them to have full confidence because they have complete understanding of God's secret plan, which is Christ himself. In him lie hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. I'm telling you this so that no one will be able to deceive you with persuasive arguments." - Colossians 2:2-4 I read a great article on [url=http://www.navpress.com/EPubs/PrinterFriendly/1/1.97.9.html]The 10 Questions To Ask To Make Sure You're Still Growing[/url]. And I realized I was lacking in some areas, actually - I was lacking in all areas. Looking back over the past few months, I see that I'm still the same person I was then. I still do the same things, and I still know the same things... But that's not God's plan for us! He wants to bring us closer to Him, he wants us to grow in our knowledge and love for Him.
