And if Christ is in you, the body is dead
because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. Romans 8:10
They say fish and company stink after 3 days. When
people come visit and stay a while, your life changes: your routine changes,
your spending most likely increases as you entertain and feed guests, your
sleep pattern changes, and it’s probably a little more noisy when you have
others to talk with. After 3 days of entertaining, you are probably ready for
them to leave so you can resume your normal way of life. This is probably true
of everyone reading this blog.
But, what if Jesus Christ came to visit you, how
long would you be comfortable Him staying? A few days, a year, maybe your
lifetime? Once you accept Jesus Christ, everything about your life changes: the
people you connect with, your financial commitments change, your attitude changes
towards other people, the things you do in your everyday life change. Many changes
occur with this new visitor in your life. How well you accept Jesus into your
life shows by the changes you’ve made. If no change is made, you’ve got to ask
yourself, have you truly welcomed Him?
For those who live according to the flesh, set
their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the
Spirit, the things of the Spirit. Romans 8:5
You know how you live each day. You have a
choice to make, who you’ll please. God or your flesh. There are many rewards
and blessings when you live for Jesus. God’s Holy Spirit is given to help you
in your everyday life. He will nudge you when you are living worldly, and will lead
you down the right path, if you choose to follow. He’s in your life for good,
why not make Him fell welcome by being the kind of host you’d be to your
favorite visitor. God bless!
