I know I used the above song in yesterday’s blog post (Image – Part 4 of 4), however I make no apologies for using it again today. I think the words of this song are ones which maybe we all need to pray far more often than we actually do.
Colossians 1:27 (The Message)
Christ is in you, so therefore you can look forward to sharing in God‘s glory
As I listened to the above song when I was writing yesterday’s blog post a whole load of memories can flooding back to me – When I was songster leader at Rutherglen Salvation Army, this was one of the songs I used to lead them in, and it was one of my favourites. It was one of those songs, of which I’ve found only a few over the years, that when we sang it it made the hairs on the back on my neck stand up and send a shiver down my spine…I believe that was because Christ was with us, and speak to me through that song.
It is quite a challenge isn’t it, ensuring other see Christ in us?
Is Christ the only one that others can see in you?
My honest answer would have to be that many times it is not Christ people will see in me.
However I pray that as I continue to recognise my failings and weaknesses,and let God into more of my life, He will continue to strengthen me and calmly order my life so that the world my only see Christ in me.
I pray you too may continue to grow in Christ so that other will see Christ in you.
