Hidden in Christ.

Hello there,
How are you?
I hope that you're having a really nice day.
I've got my plunger coffee so I'm all ready to go.

Today I want to share with you, what it would mean being hidden in Christ.

As a young child, I was a pretty good hider,  I was found hiding in an old old wardrobe once, while playing hide and seek, the only thing is, that I fell asleep in the base of it.

Hidden in Christ, means that you died with him and have raised to life again. In Christ.

It means we have this confidence in him, that we can pray, we can heal in the name of Jesus. We can come boldly to him and he hears our prayers and supplications.

That we come out of hiding when we're with him, and we go straight to the father.
And he hears us, he doesn't turn a deaf ear to our cries.

We can be masters of hiding, and hiding behind ourselves, only letting the people see the good side of us.

But what if come out of hiding, and let the peace of God be with us all the time?

Not to gloss over it, but be true to ourselves.
It is important that we are true to ourselves, and know who we are in Christ, and that is evident to all people around us.

We don't like it when people are fake, or double mindedness which is in 1st peter.

Let our yes be yes and our no be no.

Yes, we can do some small things, to get to the bigger things, but we make promises that we can't keep.

We are not trained physiologists to help people, we can only help them so far.
The rest must be up to that person.
We can't always rely on the faith of others,  to get us through, we need to come to him. personally.
But we can rely on the prayers of others, and we do need those conversations that sharpen us up, and make us sharp.
 
Come out of hiding, and come to him, with a clean heart, he has created for us.

Jesus is the only one that we can rely on, he is the author and perfecter of our faith.

That nothing is to hard for him to take on, it's up to us to to hand it over to him.

To come out of hiding, means you come out of the dark cave and into the light.

I've grown up now, and out of hiding.
And I'm out of the cave, and into the light.

The light of him, and where he's got me at this point in time.

So may the lord Jesus Christ come to you, now, and pick you up out of hiding, and be risen with him.
May you go with the grace of God, ready to serve when he calls you.
