It’s Dear to Know That I Belong

Daily writing prompt
What personal belongings do you hold most dear?
When you know you belong 
You truly get along.
Let Jesus make you strong
And forgive all your wrong
So He can sing His song
Within you and through you.

To know about Jesus is to know some theology. To know Jesus is to know and to experience the reality of the presence and love of God. The better you know Jesus, the more God’s love overflows from deep within you — the more you know that you belong to Him.

True love doesn’t come from learning facts about Jesus. It comes from flaming faith in and total reliance on His ongoing presence and powerful working in and through your daily life.

Learn to know Jesus. It’s not enough to only know about Him. To know Jesus as your Lord and Friend is to realize that He created the heavens and the earth. (John 1:1-3 & 14) Freedom from emotional pain can’t be found in alcohol, drugs, pornography, sex, gambling, or other forms of self-focus. It’s found in full surrender and obedience to the risen Jesus Christ.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
