Just me trying to be honest with God.

The Christian life is more than accepting Christ’s teaching; it is accepting the very person of Christ into our life.

“But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name.” John 1
A Christian does more than just follow the teachings of Jesus, the resurrected Christ takes up residence in us. This life is the union of our soul to the soul of Christ. This means that wherever we go, whatever we do, we are never alone, Christ is with us. This is not to say that He is around us, but that He is actually living inside us. Realizing this will have a profound influence on our thoughts and actions. Before I say something or do something do I want to involve Jesus in it. To know that Christ lives in you makes our every act either sacred or sacrilege. Conversations Within” ts 1/21/2013 (Selma, AL)
