Anyone who eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him.-John 6:56(NLT)
UNION WITH CHRIST
A poem and essay by ILMA
Are you burning with passion to know Christ?
Are you helping his body to have freedom in their lives?
Anyone who eats his word will be released from bondages
Those who drink his blood will have much advantages.
To be in union with Christ is to feed on his truth
To spiritually grow, one must allow his words to take root
Store what the Scriptures say in your heart
He will remain in you and will never depart.

When a man and a woman gets married, they become husband and wife and become one flesh. The commitment to marry someone is an act of unifying two people together and think and act as one entity. In the same manner, God longs for us to be united with him always. He created us for himself. We are not on our own. When we live our lives in isolation from him, we are behaving and acting like we come from him. God created us in his own image and likeness. We all have the capacity to become more like him everyday. He gave that gift to us. He expects us to eat of his body and drink from his blood so that He can remain in us and we in him.
PRAYER
Lord, remind me never allow anything to separate me from you.
REFLECTION
How can your union with Christ deepen so he can always remain in you?
