*AT HOME IN CHRIST*
*PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME*
*"And the Word was made (became) flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth" *(John 1:14)*
Sometimes, I try to imagine what it was like being with Jesus when He walked the earth. What was Jesus like? John says He was full of grace and reality. When you came to Jesus, your search ended. When you came to Jesus, you arrived; you were at home; you didn't want to go anywhere else. It brings to mind the two disciples of John the Baptist who came to Jesus and asked, *"Master, where do you live?"* (John 1:38), and they followed Him home, listened to Him all evening until it became too late for them to leave. They stayed with Him through the night and the Bible specifically records that they never went back to John.
When you come to Jesus, you're at home; you're fulfilled! Glory to God! There's just something extraordinary about Him. He's peace personified! He's love untainted. He's joy indescribable. He's the embodiment of life! In Him, you find rest. He said in Matthew 11:28, *"Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."* Quit the struggle. Stop the fear. Fix your gaze on Jesus. His divine presence in you, with you, and around you is your advantage over the crises and challenges of life.
Therefore, celebrate Christ in you. Celebrate His life in you and your oneness with Him. Love Him lavishly and prove it by your commitment to His Word. He said, *"If ye love me, keep my commandments"* (John 14:15). The proof of your love for Him is acting on His Word; that way, He'll cause you to sail through life's troubles triumphantly.
*FURTHER STUDY:* Matthew 11:28-30; Colossians 1:27
