We Are Spirit

How many times have you had a conversation with someone about Christ or faith or maybe just life when you are asked the question "how is your spiritual life going??" Maybe you have asked the question yourself.  I have been thinking about this for a while and it occurs to me that this question is kind of silly.  I know we are made in the image of God, born with a place in us that can only be filled truly by Christ and a relationship with Him. Being made in the image of God doesn't just mean we have a spirit but that we are a spirit.  We can not, nor should we, seperate certain parts of our lives as though we are seperating a pie.  Its so easy to look at our lives in pieces like: my work, family, finances, church, etc.  But the truth is we are born with a spirit and when we accept Christ the spirit of God becomes the very foundation of who we are.  It should consume every area of our lives. We should be impacted by the spirit of Christ in our work, family, finances, church, etc.  Our "spiritual lives" are at the very core of who we are. 

John 4:24 says "God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth". 

May we recognize God in our lives.  May he work in us and through us.  May we worship Him with the right heart attitude and learn who He is through His word.  If we are made in His image, and I believe we are, then we are spirit as well.  I pray that you will join me this week in sharing your heart with Him and getting to know who He really is.  Why look for spiritual answers from any other source than the one who made you and gave you His spirit. Don't be decieved but seek after the one that can and is waiting to change your life.  Jesus Christ is the only one that holds all the answers and Hope you need.

Im praying for you!!! Enjoy your week and look for Gods little surprises in the most unexpected places.
