Being set apart
Whoever dwells in the shelter of the most high will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. Psalm 91:1
Abiding in Christ is a place of rest and peace. Where else would you go in life, except to abide in Jesus. Living for Jesus doesn’t mean living separate from the world around us. Set apart from the world, yes, and called to be in the world and at the same time, not of the world (John 17:14-16).
How do we live in the world and not be of the world? Our hearts are given to Jesus, so in whatever we do, we are to worship the Lord. If something feels off in your spirit, you don’t go there. Jesus wants us to be shining lights for Him, in sometimes a dark world. We can make a good difference as we prayerfully live in the world, believing for the Holy Spirit to move in lives around us.
Heavenly Father, thanks for the grace to live holy lives in the world that we are called to be a light in. I want to be set apart for you Lord, in Jesus’ name, amen.
