Well Good morning honeys! How are you all? It’s Monday morning about 5.30am and I’m ready for my morning coffee with you. It looks like I’ve missed much! Oh well, a girls gotta have some beauty sleep ya know! 
Hellooooooooooooooooo
Hellooooooooooooooooo
It was real when I said I have prayed for you - even before meeting you! As, I trust, many here have as well.
If it were not God's will you may have an addiction, but you are here as it is God's will, thus it is a proper relationship with mankind based on a proper relationship with God. I know you were splashing a bit of irony there, as a lighthearted inclusion, but to be sure - we need you as you need us - And all under the heading of Jesus Christ as He leads us therein! We all need to have a thirst for kindness and reality that is found in Christ.
"…till we all come…to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ…" - (Ephesians 4:13)
The reconciliation of the human race according to His plan means realizing Him not only in our lives individually, but also in our lives collectively. Jesus Christ sent apostles and teachers for this very purpose - that the corporate Person of Christ and His church, made up of many members, might be brought into being and made known. We are not here to develop a spiritual life of our own, (there are no Narcissist Christians who are in God's will) or to enjoy a quiet spiritual retreat. We are here to have the full realization of Jesus Christ, for the purpose of building His body.
Am I building up the body of Christ, or am I only concerned about my own personal development? The essential thing is my personal relationship with Jesus Christ - “…that I may know Him…” (Philippians 3:10). To fulfill God’s perfect design for me requires my total surrender - complete abandonment of myself to Him. Whenever I only want things for myself, the relationship is distorted. But this is not where I see you are at as stated in the addiction irony. And I will suffer great humiliation once I come to acknowledge and understand that I have not really been concerned about realizing Jesus Christ Himself, but only concerned with knowing what He has done for me.
My goal is God Himself, not Joy nor Peace, Nor even Blessing, but Himself, my God. Am I measuring my life by this standard or by something less?
Today as I think that God became a human being, was born into a human body becomes humbling and awe-inspiring. That little infant body grew and increased in strength and stature. Jesus in that body ministered, healed the sick, taught the eternal truths of Almighty God, and fed the hungry. In that body, Jesus was brutally nailed to the Cross, where in that body, He died.
But that body was raised after three days, victorious and triumphant over death!! After forty days that resurrected body ascended to the heavenly Father. And now the Church has become that Body. The Spirit that unites us, and the Spirit which creates your thirst for Him and us alike, as His Body of Believers, is the Spirit of Christ - Alive and present in His Body, the Church; The Body of Christ. This is not an addiction, but it is rather a properly aligned relationship with God, which translates to each one of us to each other. We need each other in Christ!
Whatever is pure (etc) think on these things ... it is the love and reality of His Word that is shared here that draws you to this thread. Thus, let us Thank The Lord for it. We are a reflection of Him if we let Him rule.
Hey, I just got out of Church - what can I say?. LOL
