Perfect In Christ

Colossians 1:24-29
Paul's Labor for the Church

28 We proclaim him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ. 29 To this end I labor, struggling with all his energy, which so powerfully works in me.

Bee's Thoughts:

It's a "mystery" that Christ can be in us, Christians. That's where our hope is. If Christ is in me, wouldn't I behave and think like Him? Perhaps that's why in Christ we can be "perfect".

Jesus says, "I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing." (John 15:5) We need to remain and be joined to Christ in order to have that special life to bear fruits.

Dear Lord,
I am very tired and weary from my work. Let me abide in You to draw strength. Even then, I pray that You will help me be compassionate towards those that need encouragement and help. Let be "perfect" in You and bear fruits... that's others may see Your glory.

In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
