Start Living!
Colossians 2:6-8 (msg) My counsel for you is simple and straightforward: Just go ahead with what you’ve been given. You received Christ Jesus, the Master; now live him. You’re deeply rooted in him. You’re well constructed upon him. You know your way around the faith. Now do what you’ve been taught. School’s out; quit studying the subject and start living it! And let your living spill over into thanksgiving.
Watch out for people who try to dazzle you with big words and intellectual double-talk. They want to drag you off into endless arguments that never amount to anything.
It is an exciting day to Live. My heart and mind keep sinking back into the George MacDonald quote I posted Saturday:
It takes the clinging world, undoes its clasp, Floats it afar upon a mighty sea, And leaves us quiet with love and liberty and thee.
We are free to Live! We have the map. We know who God is revealed to us in Christ Jesus and as we obey, undoing the clasp of the clinging world, we journey further up and further into Him. Let it be so! Amen.
