Jesus says, “Come...abide in me”
Abide means to bear patiently, to wait.
Abide
Jesus says, “Come...abide in me”
Abide means to bear patiently, to wait.
When I slow my breath and take note of its rhythms I am forced to surrender other thoughts.
I am intentionally learning to wait- but not for answers, for His presence.
“I am the Way. The Truth and The Life” He says
The Way
The Truth
The Life
The Way
- the way of peace
- the way of hope
- The way of trust
- Of knowledge
- Of purpose
The Truth
- the Truth I seek about who I am in Christ
- The truth about how loved I am
- The truth about my purpose
- All of this is found in Him
The Life
- the Life lived fully
- The Life that breathes life into me
- The Life of sacrifice
- The Life of meaning
Jesus is always the answer to the questions
Ann Voskamp says “Peace is a person not a feeling”
So I breathe slow
The thoughts race and I push them aside to focus on Him
I purposefully abide, wait, bear patiently … in Christ because I am nothing without Him.
I will go my own way, tell myself a false truth and toil at a life focused on self if not for Him
He is my first step
My steady
My way
My truth
My life
Abide in me
Abide in me
