“You have everything when you have Christ.”
Colossians 2:10 (TLB)
10 “So you have everything when you have Christ, and you are filled with God through your union with Christ. He is the highest Ruler, with authority over every other power.”
Everything we have in life is a gift from God. We first need to understand God’s love for us. We need to experience God’s love in our lives. We need to realise that God loves us completely; nothing we do can ever stop God from loving us. That is when we understand that when we have everything, we have Christ. We, though, are going to love – love and be loved. First, we were loved, now we love. He loved us first. 1 John 4, verse 19.
We may not think about this, but we need to renew our relationships with ourselves. Why? We spend a lot of time with ourselves, and I need to get along with myself. In loving myself in a balanced way, I am affirming God as my creator.
Prayer
Abba Father, according to Your Word, I kneel before You, I have everything when I have Christ. Lord, help me to live a balanced life, focused and meditated on You. I have everything when I have You, Lord Jesus. Bless my life, my family and my friends in Your Holy Name, Amen.

I say I am a Christian wife, an Author, Radio Presenter, a Blogger, a mother, and stepmother, a granny, and a Data Capture and Personal Assistant.
I absolutely and unconditionally love the LORD my God, and my husband and children. I love to write devotionals about the Word of God – the Bible. I like to incorporate my feelings and understanding in my blogs.
We all face challenges don't we, and for me, it is just as difficult as for the next person. I also get frustrated and irritated and cry, and after everything I have tried, I turn back to God. I seem to learn the hard way, just like a little child always wanting to try it myself before I ask Daddy for help.
I would say that I am a people's kind of person, I feel their pain, and I love to laugh with them. I always aspire to see the very best in people, never judging and still considering what they might be facing as people there and then. On meeting people, I always place them in the highest bracket on my scale. I believe the very best of each person.
I do hope you love reading my blogs and seeing what I am doing on my web page. In the precious name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I bless you.
