Who rules your world?
Sounds almost like a tongue in cheek question, but the raw truth behind the answer says a lot about who you are. In church, as a Christian, we know the answer almost instinctively, "Jesus rules my world."
The definition of rule includes governing authority or customary response or behavior. By this definition, does Jesus rule your world? Does Jesus rule my world? I know I desire Jesus to rule my world, but often my ways dictates my behavior and responses. Sad face.
So I'm convinced that my way has to take a back seat to God's way and God's Word. It's easier to type that than to live it, but I will encourage you, and me that this is possible with the assistance of the Holy Spirit. His indwelling presence in our life propels us to eagerly allow God space and time to work out His plan in our life.
Today is a great day to decrease, that God will increase (John 3:30). Wisdom says that whoever rules your world you give first and most priority to. Will you join me in decreasing that God will increase? After all, it's all about Him, it only involves us.
A life that is ruled by Jesus is a life of abundance. A life that is filled with hope and love and faith. We're all a work in progress, but admitting where you are and owning it only to give it to Jesus is the best place to be.
Here's to the rule of Jesus in your life, and mine.
God loves you and has an awesome plan for your life!
