Today's truth is speaking to me... He lives in us. If we live in Him, we are being more our true selves. My mind is blown! It's all coming together now. He is the depths of our being, filling our deepest desire. Yes we give up selfish ways to live in Him, but we get back so much more. We get true happiness in self-sacrifice.. a hard concept to grasp, but very much worthy of our attention. THe more we die to ourselves the more He can shine through us.
God is asking me to... respect my life as a vessel that God uses for a special purpose. Don't be ashamed to talk about Him and my deepest desires to be with Him, to know Him, to love him more fully. Treat each life as a beautiful temple of God--- He is living within all of us!
My challenge is to... Be patient and humble in all that I do-- prayer, work, play, talk. Respect life-- including my own-- so that other may learn from what I say and do and how I present myself. Do not be afraid of holiness--- a life set apart-- as that is each person's truest call. Take up my cross daily, uniting my suffering with Jesus', and realizing that this suffering has purpose.
