John 14:13 “Whatever ye shall ask in My
name, that will I do.”
What is at the center of me? Is it my past,
or all the chores of the day? Is my core filled with the fear of what will come
tomorrow? Is it filled with other people’s opinions of me? Or, as Chambers
asks, “Is Jesus Christ more and more dominating every interest of my life? Am I
taking time to abide? What is the greatest factor of power in my life?” If I
meditate deeply on those questions, and I cannot answer Jesus every time, I am
not where I should be in my walk with Him, and hence I will be ineffective for
my God.
My goal is not perfection, for I know that
is unachievable, but I want to be striving always to seek God’s will in
everything. I want to take time to be still and listen. I want be in God’s word,
so I can speak to others about the freedom that lies within. I want to walk in
the light of God’s love and mercy. I want to always keep the truth of the
Atonement central in my life.
For all those seeking peace and power in
other ways, the one true way is through the Cross of Christ; for His sacrifice
bestowed on all people the forgiveness of sin bought with His blood, and the
indwelling of the Holy Spirit. He is all we will ever need.
