In Christ Alone
March 8, 2011“And you will seek me and find me when you search for me with all your heart.” -Jeremiah 29:13
Almost daily, I find myself asking God to refocus my heart and mind to Him. This morning was no different. As I sat on my couch, with the sun shining through the blinds, I just closed my eyes and tried to think only of Him. Why is that so hard sometimes? To Do lists start floating through my head and pretty soon I have to start over again.
My life is much more fulfilling when I forget about the things of this world. All the books surrounding me didn’t matter. The candles, picture frames, and decor that decorate my mantle and that I deliberated on buying months before mean nothing to me. Our furniture, our beautiful house, my future plans- none of these are any good without Christ in my life. It’s refreshing to remember from time to time. In Christ alone- He gives me life.
