Live Life in Christ

Live Life in Christ

Do not live life like the World from the outside in, 

Always receiving and never giving to anyone but self, 

Live life in Christ complete in the Spirit from the inside out,

Give of yourself to others, encourage and share another’s load along life's way! 

Deep within the hearts of all, God made Himself evident within, 

For no one wants to live life as a lie hidden deep within and face the loneliness of sin.

In time God will expose all hearts suffering sin's shame, and reveal their bondage to sin, 

Either before Him on Judgment Day, 

To be cast away to Hell's darkness and the depths of the unknown for eternity, 

Or previously, before death's hold in faith's belief, on the knees of the humbleness of repentance, 

Acceptance within the light of Christ, received Jesus and became anew to live within Him. 

Christianity is much more than just another religion, God gave it to the World by His Loving Grace, 

By way of the crucifixion of His Son, Jesus Christ, 

He took our place, upon the Cross-high atop Mount Calvary, 

For all the World to see His Love given for you and me, 

That day, He paid the price for the sins of all humanity. 

Which is testified too in God's Word, given to and written within by the Apostles, 

Amplifying and glorifying God and His Holy Word, 

Thereby, giving purpose and meaning to life in Christ, 

And His Crucifixion upon the Cross of Calvary, Salvation by faith's belief in and through Christ, 

For all humanity to commune daily in prayer with God through Christ, 

The Blood of Lamb that covered the sins of all, complete, the price Jesus Christ paid that day. 

Do not live life like the World, from the outside in, 

Receive Christ and renew the Spirit within as given by God, 

Receive the Holy Spirit and live in Him, 

In addition, live in the Spirit, to live life from the inside out, 

By making whole and clean again the Spirit within as given by Him, 

As given, by God, at Adam's creation as God created him and Adam's Race in their image. 

Become, whole and complete again in Him, 

By repenting of all sins within to live anew for and within Him, complete life with Him. 

I in prayer, asked God for strength, and He revealed His Word, 

To restructure and build the heart within to without, 

To follow, wrapped in faith's belief, the footsteps of Christ, 

In the strength of the Holy Spirit and build the Spirit within anew in Him, 

By the Spirit’s teachings of Christ and become a refection of the Word to the World. 

I asked God for Wisdom and He gave the Compassion of Christ, 

That cleanses the eyes to see all as one in the Light of Christ. 

I asked God for Prosperity, He gave the Word of Life to build others with the teachings of Christ, 

For God is the one who supplies all needs from His Creation throughout life. 

I asked God for Courage, He revealed the Shed Blood of Christ upon the Cross

That covered and cleansed the sins of all and builds anew in Him to stand forever by and with Him. 

I asked God for love and He wrapped the heart with the Love of Christ

 In addition, gave the Whole World to spread His Love amongst all.

 Build the Spirit, Soul, and Body by Faith's Belief in Christ, from within, daily in God's Word. 

God gives, His Strength through His Word, 

That builds courage, understanding, and knowledge, 

Revealing and giving to all, who seek, His wisdom to face the problems of life. 

Do not live life like the World from the outside in

Always receiving and never giving to anyone but self, 

Live life in Christ, in the Spirit from the inside out, 

Give of yourself to others, encourage and share another’s load along life's way! 

Lord, keep my eyes open and upon You, 

The heart within wrapped in Your Love and Compassion to give to others in Your Name,

And keep my voice praising God's Holy Name daily for all He has provided,
