Ephesians 4:15-16
“We take our lead from Christ, who is the source of everything we do. He keeps us in step with each other. His very breath and blood flow through us, nourishing us so that we will grow up healthy in God, robust in love.”
“Instead, we will speak the truth in love, growing in every way more and more like Christ, who is the head of his body, the church. He makes the whole body fit together perfectly. As each part does its own special work, it helps the other parts grow, so that the whole body is healthy and growing and full of love.”
Christ is the source of everything I do. When I am up against a wall the answer is always more of Christ. He keeps me from staggering about, gives me focus and direction. He is my only source of nourishment and I need to eat every day, even every moment. He alone raises me up whole and robust in perfect love. He is my model for loving and being.
Lord, I am your beloved creature. You have made me for love and relationship. Grace me to fulfill that destiny, learning from you and living for you every moment, every day.
