I was reading through John 15 this week with a friend, chatting about what God has to say to us with this passage.
"What do you think it means to abide in Christ?" he asked me.
"For in him we live and move and have our being." (Acts 17:28)
So whether I'm just going through daily life, whether I'm on the move, transitioning and changing, or whether I'm simply being...
It's in Him.
I'm in Him.
He is my home.
I'm home.
"As the Father has loved me, so I have loved you. Abide in my love." (John 15:9)
"What do you think it means to abide in Christ?" he asked me.
I thought for a minute, remembering the times I've translated this verse from the Greek text. μένω (meno) is the word used, meaning stay, or wait, or even continue.
"Dwell there," I responded. "Live in Him. No back and forth. He's home.""For in him we live and move and have our being." (Acts 17:28)
So whether I'm just going through daily life, whether I'm on the move, transitioning and changing, or whether I'm simply being...
It's in Him.
I'm in Him.
He is my home.
I'm home.
"As the Father has loved me, so I have loved you. Abide in my love." (John 15:9)
