Connecting with Christ
We are all part of humanity. Humanity coming alive from what source? Humanity, given breath and life for what purpose? Humanity connected to each other in what ways? All humanity longs to know its creator and find reason and meaning in life. The longing and search are timeless but the answer is not far from anyone. The One who made us and is in us: desires to unite us to our purpose and reconcile us to a relationship with Him.
Only the One who made us can know everything about us and every need in us. Only the One, who knows our hopeless sinful condition can redeem and restore us sinless and holy to Himself. Only the One who created life can give life and only the One that conquered death can free us from death to live eternally. Turn from looking anywhere else and connect to living resurrected Christ for all things and let Him be everything He can be in your life.
Father, we are ever thankful, You sent your Son, the Messiah, the Christ, who suffered and died for us and then rose from the dead to give us victorious life now and forever. Oh Lord, let us find our breath, our life, and our meaning in You and live by the truth of your Word by the Holy Spirit. May we be ever encouraged and encourage others! Amen
“The God who made the world and everything in it, this Master of sky and land, doesn’t live in custom-made shrines or need the human race to run errands for him, as if he couldn’t take care of himself. He makes the creatures; the creatures don’t make him. Starting from scratch, he made the entire human race and made the earth hospitable, with plenty of time and space for living so we could seek after God, and not just grope around in the dark but actually find him. He doesn’t play hide-and-seek with us. He’s not remote; he’s near. We live and move in him, can’t get away from him! (Acts 17:24-28; The Message)
