I Carry . . .

Daily writing promptWhat is the most important thing to carry with you all the time?View all responses

The most important thing that I carry with me is not a thing at all. I carry hope (both with me and within me). To be a bit more specific, I carry what the Bible calls: “Christ in you, the hope of glory.”

I want everyone to become a Christ-carrier! No one should miss out on such a glorious lifestyle! That kind of spiritual awakening depends on our full surrender to the living Jesus, not on passive sermon-hearing.

I love to see
Amazing grace
Gleam and shine
From someone’s face.

I love to see
People let
Jesus replace
Their self-focus
With His grace,
And watch Him erase
Their sadness and guilt.

I love to see
Christ’s joy shine
On people’s face
With no trace
Of human pride.
That happens when
They embrace
The risen Jesus
With all their heart.

I love to see
People surrender
To the presence and grace
Of “Christ in you,”
And go far beyond
Routine religion.
