Jesus Paid it All...Kristian Stanfill

Very moving….Just love seeing people worship! It brings tears to my eyes every time….

“ I hear the Savior say, thy strength indeed is small. Child of weakness, watch and pray, find in Me thine all in all.”

We grow strong and healthy and stay in good shape, by what we choose to feed on. I pray you find your all in all in Jesus.

It is a fact that we grow by what we feed on. We live in such a fast past world, and have very busy lives. We can choose the fast food junk to eat, or be proactive and prepare meals we are going to nourish our bodies with, not just fill it. So many of us eat to get full instead of looking at food for nourishment. What happens then? We start to gain unwanted weight and then we are looking for ways to take it off quickly. There are always consequences to bad choices, and it takes time to get where we would like to be. We didn’t put it on in a day, so give yourself time.

Being physically fit and spiritually fit, is all about our obedience in how we spend our time, and choices on what we are eating. A great way to grow strong, is falling to our knees.

Some people say that they believe and that they are Christians, but they live and eat on the junk food of their own belief of what it is to really be a follower of Christ. They spend little or no time at all in the most healthiest meal, THE BIBLE. They make every excuse of why they don’t attend church. These are just a few reasons why a person would look fat on the world, instead of in shape with Jesus. So if we grow by what we feed on, what is your spiritual shape? You see, the only thing that makes you stay in healthy spiritual shape is the “bread of God” John 6: 30-35. “For the bread of God is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world…..I am the bread of life”   Jesus paid it all, so all to Him we owe. How is it that I would try anything else for comfort food when He is so full, so rich, so satisfying.

The closer we are to the Lord Jesus, the more we will have an appetite for spiritual things. So go ahead and fill up on Him. I think an overload of Jesus looks a lot better on the “body” than filling up on junk food every day. Go ahead and overeat, maybe you’ll overflow. (Selah)
