Living for Christ the Rest of the Year

As I did my today meditation verse where Mary says in Luke, "My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for he has looked on the humble estate of his servant. For behold, from now on all generations will call me blessed; for he who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is his name. And his mercy is for those who fear him from generation to generation. He has shown strength with his arm; he has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts; he has brought down the mighty from their thrones and exalted those of humble estate; he has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he has sent empty away. He has helped his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy, as he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and to his offspring forever" (Luke 1:46-55), enabling me to observe how Mary sang and praised God for the same reasons that we ought to be singing every day of the year: She sang because of her salvation. And Mary knew the challenges that were on the horizon and was getting ready to face some severe scrutiny for turning up pregnant and unwed. She was going to cause her family, who would be forced to disown her or face the same rejection.

 

Today, I appreciate to what Christ did for me by being born as a Savior and to experience the life of Christ every day as He lives through me. And, I desire to have a daily relationship with Christ by spending time reading God’s Word and praying to Him daily, and to have Christ living in me and leading, guiding me for the whole year in 2019.

 

Let’s live for Christ as we have a daily relationship with Him this new year!
