FULLY ALIVE IN CHRIST?














FULLY ALIVE IN CHRIST?


Jesus has TOUCHED MY HEART!=
My life=He has
Made me FULLY AWARE
In my LOVE for him!


Has he TOUCHED your life?
Are you FULLY ALIVE
In Christ?


“To do your will-
O my God


IS my delight
And your law
Is WITHIN MY HEART” Psalm 40:9


God WANTS us to
Love him=Jesus wants us
To LOVE HIM=
He wants us
To be FULLY AWARE
Of the sacrifice
He has made
FOR US


He wants us
To be fully aware
Of the love
He has FOR US


And he wants us
To be FULLY ALIVE=
And in love with him


“When Moses came down
From Mount Sinai
With the two tablets


Of the covenant law
In his hands


He was NOT AWARE
That his face
Was radiant


Because he had
Spoken with the Lord” Exodus 34:29


“The master of the servant
Will come
On a day


When he does
NOT expect him
And at the hour


He is NOT AWARE OF” Matthew 24:50


Are you living
Like you LOVE GOD
The Father?
Are you FULLY ALIVE=
Alive with and
IN LOVE with Christ?


God urges us
To love him=We are alive
ONLY because of Jesus


ONLY because of the
POWER of Christ's love
In our hearts


Yes-sometimes we still sin-
We choose to ACT
Out of selfishness=prejudice=
Or ambivalence


This ME-FIRST attitude
Only gives TEMPORARY satisfaction


But the psalmist
Tells us today=
We can only FIND LASTING HAPPINESS=
When our hearts are JOINED
With God's=
LIVING out of love LIKE CHRIST


“IN the same way
Count yourselves
Dead to sin


But ALIVE to God
In Christ Jesus” Romans 6:11


“For the word of God
Is ALIVE and active


Sharper than
ANY double-edged sword” Hebrews 4:12


There is something
VERY ATTRACTIVE in those
That are FULLY ALIVE
In Christ Jesus!


They find DELIGHT
In all they do


In Jesus' name=and in the name=of the FATHER=our ever LIVING-LOVING GOD!
