"O come with me to the Word of God! ...Whatever it costs, do not read it and leave it. It transforms us by its presence in our minds, not by staying on the bedside table." ~John Piper

What if...?

Reading a portion of Scripture that a friend passed along to me brought me to thinking of what my life would look like if I did what Jesus did, in placing His Father's will above His. What if I would have God's desires at the forefront of my life?

I think what I will do is scratch out some thoughts in my journal to this question, but... what would our lives look like if we would.. live.. for Christ? Really.. live for Him. Not 'do it cuz it's good or right', but that we would be utterly consumed.

For myself... what if I would be as passionate and committed about growing in relationship with Christ as I am learning about John Cash, or playing baseball? I want my clothing to demonstrate my passion for baseball. I want my cd collection to reveal my fascination with the music of John Cash. What if my everything spread the truth of my desire for Jesus? What would it look like?
