LIVING JESUS…EVERY HOUR…EVERY DAY

“Your old life is dead. Your new life, which is your REAL life, even though invisible to spectators, is with Christ in God. HE is your life. Be content with obscurity, like Christ.

HOW TO DRESS…What NOT to wear! Stinky clothes.
“And that means killing off everything connected with that way of death: sexual promiscuity, impurity, lust, doing whatever you feel like whenever you feel like it, and grabbing whatever attracts your fancy. That’s a life shaped by things and feelings instead of by God. It’s because of this kind of thing that God is about to explode in anger. …make sure it all gone for good: bad temper, irritability, meanness, profanity, dirty talk.” “Don’t lie to each other.”

HOW TO DRESS…What TO wear! New Life = New Wardrobe!
“Everyone is defined by Christ, everyone is included in Christ. SO, chosen by God for this new life of love, dress in the wardrobe God picked out for you: compassion, kindness, humility, quiet strength, discipline. Be even-tempered, content with second place, quick to forgive an offense, Forgive as quickly and completely as the Master forgave you.”
“And regardless of what else you put on, wear love. It’s your basic, all-purpose garment. Never be without it.”

PEACE
“Let the peace of Christ keep you in turn with each other, in step with each other. None of this going off and doing your own thing. And cultivate thankfulness.”

LIVE CHRIST AND HIS WORD
“Let the Word of Christ—The Message—have the run of the house. Give it plenty of room in your lives. Instruct and direct one another using good common sense.”

SING WITH ALL OUR HEARTS TO GOD!
“And sing, sing your hearts out to God! Let every detail in your lives—words, actions, whatever—be done in the name of the Master, Jesus, thanking God the Father every step of the way.”

Dear Heavenly Father, I want to be beautiful, in Your eyes, on the inside. I want others to see the beauty of YOU that lives in me. Take away all that offends You and cleanse me to be all that you intended for me to be…and then do. May I always be directed by You, say yes to You and live You even if I am rejected and despised by others. I need You every hour as I decide exactly what to wear for every life situation. I’m listening…
In Jesus Name, Amen
