Embracing Jesus as a Living Person
Our relationship with Jesus should be personal and dynamic, not merely theoretical. He is not just a historical figure or moral example but a living Lord who desires intimacy with us. We are invited to cultivate a deep, personal relationship with Him, seeking His presence and guidance in every aspect of our lives. This relationship is marked by ongoing communication, trust, and a desire to know Him more fully. By embracing Jesus as a living person, we open ourselves to the richness of His love and the depth of His wisdom, allowing Him to shape our lives in profound ways.
John 15:4-5 (KJV): "Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing."
Reflection: How can you cultivate a more personal and dynamic relationship with Jesus today? What specific practices can you incorporate into your daily routine to seek His presence and guidance?
