Live God

Live God each and everyday. Not only do we need to worship the Creator, pray to our Creator, ask for our Creator for what we need, intercede for others to our Creator - but we also need to live our Creator. When we live in connection to our God and change our heart, what comes out of us should be more and more like Christ. More love, kindness, humility, and more patience will be able to flow out of us.

My counsel for you is simple and straightforward: Just go ahead with what you've been given. You received Christ Jesus, the Master; now live him. You're deeply rooted in him. You're well constructed upon him. You know your way around the faith. Now do what you've been taught. School's out; quit studying the subject and start living it! And let your living spill over into thanksgiving. Colossians 2:6-7
We are encouarged that once we know our way around our faith and are deeply rooted in God we need to begin living God. I love the phrase living God. That is what we are actually doing - living God. We are not waiting for God to come down and change everyone, God is wanted to use us to bring light to the darkness. We are light, not in the way of making sure everyone is morally right and demanding it from people, but in the way of loving people. When people feel this love they cannot deny God. They cannot deny God if we love like Christ without every mentioning his name. Living God is just that, living each moment in love, kindness, and humility with others. Live God today. Catch yourself when anger begins to rise, let go of your ego that wants to assert itself. Remember that you have just been given an opportunity to live God. Recognize it and live it.
Namaste'
