… how can we live lives
acceptable to God?
The answer is near thee,
even in thy mouth.
Vacate the throne room
of your heart and
enthrone Jesus there.
Set Him in the focus of
your heart’s attention
and stop wanting to
be a hero.
Make Him your all in all
and try yourself to become
less and less.
Dedicate your entire life to His honor alone and
shift the motives of your life from self to God.
Let the reason back of your daily conduct be
Christ and His glory,
not yourself, not your family nor your country nor your church.
In all things let Him have the preeminence.
even in thy mouth.
Vacate the throne room
of your heart and
enthrone Jesus there.
Set Him in the focus of
your heart’s attention
and stop wanting to
be a hero.
Make Him your all in all
and try yourself to become
less and less.
Dedicate your entire life to His honor alone and
shift the motives of your life from self to God.
Let the reason back of your daily conduct be
Christ and His glory,
not yourself, not your family nor your country nor your church.
In all things let Him have the preeminence.
