His Presence

As I walk through my day, it is Christ's body that I direct. In all that I do, I am asking Him to partake with me. If I think negative thoughts toward someone, I am asking Him to share in that with me. As I realize this, I understand only wanting pure thoughts in my mind. I want to only listen to and watch wholesome things. And God calls to mind the scripture in Phillipians 4:8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. As I walk through the day, I meditate on this. I ask myself, Am I focused on Him to the extent that I am aware of His presence more than my own? Is this what it means to die to myself daily? To be aware that I am asking Jesus to experience life here on earth through me. As I am aware of how much He loves me, I only desire goodness and peace to come from my actions and thoughts.
