The weak things of this world are spurned and cast offs.   Yet, it is Christ, the ‘cornerstone rejected’, whom He calls  these to be His own.   In the writing of Paul to the Corinthians Chapter 12  verses 7-10  we can take note of Humility towards Christ.

7) “But I refrain, lest anyone think more of me than what he sees in me or hears from my lips.   As to the extraordinary revelations, in order that I might not become conceited I was given a thorn in the flesh, an angel of Satan to beat me and keep me from getting proud.   8)   Three times I begged the Lord that this might leave me.   9)He said to me,”My grace is enough for you, for in weakness power reaches perfection.”   And so I willingly boast of my weakness instead, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.   10) Therefore, I am content with weakness, with mistreatment, with distress, with persecutions and difficulties for the sake of Christ; for when I am powerless, it is then that I am strong”

So that Jesus Christ may be ‘real’ to a believer, one must put on Christ.   It is not enough to simply profess Christ but rather to live as He lived.   He himself tells us in John Chapter 14 verse 21-24

21) “He who obeys the commandments he has from me is the man who loves me;and He who loves me will be loved by my Father.   I too will love him.”

22) Judas said to him, “Lord, why is it that you will reveal yourself to us and not the world?”

23) Jesus answered:   “Anyone who loves me will be true to my word, and my Father will love him; we will come to him and make our dwelling place  with him.

24)He who does not love me does not keep my words.   Yet the word you hear is not mine; it comes from the Father who sent me.”

The course of our lives are of our choosing.   The course of choosing Christ is the way to the Father.   The strength of Paul was through love of Christ.   He lived out the commanments in order that Christ may make a dwelling place within him.    This is true today.   To come to Christ is the Peace all who thirst for but weary of maintaining.    Jesus Christ is a true love affair and only the way to the Fathers Heart!
