In Jesus Name

I have been through a lot of sermons, messages, lessons and talks in my many years in church. Yet, this weekend really hit a chord with me!

It wasn't anything in particular that was said but the words ...in Jesus name kept going over and over in my mind, my heart, and my soul.

Maybe it's the chaos my life has become recently....although things are settling down. Maybe it's the chaos my children's lives are, but I started to wonder if it's because we are not truly focusing on Him. When I teach....although I can't mention Him....am I doing it for Him?

When I shower my two grand kids that live with me with kisses and correct them when they are wrong....am I doing it in Jesus' name?


I don't mean to go all theological, hyperChristian.....but am I really 100 percent sold out? Do I Live for him? Or is this a battle I need to try to fight harder Paul wrote I am crucified with Christ.....have I truly had my own selfish person crucified....do I let Christ reign in my life????

I am not saying my life would be perfect, without trials and tribulations, if I was completely sold out....but wouldn't my perspective be different?

As I ponder this...your thoughts and ideas are always welcome!!!!!
