NOTE: I lost a day somewhere this week! It’s Thursday folks, but I clearly woke up this morning thinking it was Wednesday! Oh my!

I spent my time with God this morning with a single verse of Scripture. Philippians 1:21. I had a coloring page for this verse, so I picked up my colored markers and began.

As I colored, I thought about my life. What is it that makes my life so worthwhile? Family. Friends. Work. Writing. Hobbies.

But then as I read through the remainder of the verse, I spent time thinking of what my life might be like without Christ. Oh, I would still have all of the things mentioned above, right? The only difference would be that Jesus wouldn’t be the center of everything that I did. He wouldn’t be the center of each relationship I have.

Because I have chosen to make Christ the center of my life, He brings a deeper meaning to my relationships, my work, my writing and everything that I do each day. Jesus Himself reminds us of why He came to earth. “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” (John 10:10 – NIV)

What does “for to me, to live is Christ” mean to you? What do you need to do to live “life to the full”?

Grace and peace be yours in abundance,

Donna
