Living for Christ

2 Corinthians 5:15 And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.

I really long to make my life look like this, every moment living for Christ, and being unafraid and unashamed to say that. I also want to live every moment IN the knowledge of this fact. Sometimes I get so busy in my days that I float through them not remembering who I am desiring to live for, not giving Him ALL the credit, feeling, at the end of the day, like I have not really given Him every moment.

Maybe it is unrealistic to want to feel like I thought about the Lord in every single thing that happened to me that day. And so I pray that the Holy Spirit is active in every second of my day, that the Lord is with me through His Spirit, which helps me to live as though Jesus is right there in the room with me.

This is a busy time of year. We get so busy with so many things going on, so many people to see and interact with, so much we think we need to get accomplished. And this whole season is supposed to be about Him!! I hate thinking how often I probably forget that. So, today, I am going to, yet again, try again to make the effort to live for Christ, and remember His birth and sacrifice so that I can fully live.
