Whoever confesses
that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. 1 John 4:15
Have you ever wondered
what it would be like to see God in person, here on earth? Well, I have some
good news! If you are a Christian, you have God living inside you through His
Holy Spirit (1
John 4:13). That’s right, He is no further from you than your heart,
mind and soul. Unfortunately, Christians get distracted by the things of this
world that they fail reflect God’s character living inside of them. He is like
a spring, waiting to be tapped. Have you tapped into His life sustaining spring?
Therefore be
imitators of God as dear children. Ephesians 5:1
As a child of God,
you are to imitate His character so others can see Him, living through your
life. What is the main characteristic of God? Love.
“And walk in love,
as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice
to God for a sweet-smelling aroma.” Ephesians 5:2
The world will never
see the image of God unless His children live their life in total obedience and
loyalty to Him. Otherwise, He will simply be this invisible being people talk
about, which makes it hard for those outside the faith to believe in Him.
You have the God of
this universe inside of you. It’s up to you to reflect His love and other
characteristics documented in the bible. Make time to study and reflect on His
character and ask God to help you empty yourself of the world and fill your life
with the sweet love and characteristics of His being so others can say, they
have seen the face of God living through you! Blessings!
