Truly Living

One time someone was telling me about some people they knew that had boats and nice houses and spent a lot of time on their boats and in other recreational activities. The person said to me, “They know how to live.” The people she was telling me about did not know Christ. In advertising, TV shows, and movies they depict for us what is supposed to be “the good life,” what to them truly living looks like. But that is not truly living. Unless you have Christ who is the life, you are not living. The only real way to live is in Christ. Colossians 3:4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory John 1:4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 1 John 5:11-12 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
