What Do People See In You?

“Therefore become imitators of God [copy Him and follow His example], as well-beloved children [imitate their father]; and walk continually in love [that is, value one another—practice empathy and compassion, unselfishly seeking the best for others], just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and sacrifice to God [slain for you, so that it became] a sweet fragrance. [Ezek 20:41]”
Ephesians 5:1-2 AMP

The song writer says he wants the world to to see the Christ in him. I like that. How about you?

They should see Him In our walk, and in our talk. In the love that we show towards one another.

Jesus said: they shall know you by the love you have for one another.

He also said, they will know you by the fruit you bear.

What is the world seeing in you?

The Law of Love

Jesus gave a new commandment and it is “love one another as He loves”.

James says we are under the Royal Law of Love. Royal means highest, supreme. So love is the highest law of Christ.

As sons of God we are called to walk in love and this is love:
“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.”
1 Corinthians 13:4-7 NIV

Love never fails

It's Okay To Ask God For Things

Truly it is okay to ask God for things, because the Scripture teaches us we have not because we asked not.

But here's the deal, in all our asking how much doing are we doing? Are we living the way He ask us to? Are we loving our neighbors as He commands us to? Are we forgiving the way He tells us to? Are we being followers of Christ? Is our asking out of a desire for what someone else has?

So in short before we ask we might want to check and make sure we are abiding in Him in His and His word is abiding in us.
