If Christ is Lord, How Life should be Lived.

I believe that if Christ is Lord, the life should be lived submissively, fearfully,

enjoying and perfectly. One of my life quotes is “What would Jesus Do!” (WWJD), I

know it implies to the fact that we, as the son of God is under the authority of a sovereign

being, that whatever we do, let us think first if Jesus is also there at the same point in time

what will he do. According to Hebrews 13:17, Obey them that have the rule over you,

and SUBMIT yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account,

that they may do it with joy and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you. We should

determine the one who is over us, first, God, we should always remember that someone is

up there who is looking unto us always, secondly, our parents, elders, and teachers, we

should obey them because they will not lead us to the dark path but rather they knows

what’s best for us.

According to Proverbs 1:7, The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge,

but fools despise wisdom and instructions. I said Fearfully because as the verse said “it is

the beginning of KNOWLEDGE”, it is the knowledge to know the consequences and

rewards before doing anything that might lead us to a destructive or prosperous life. Let

us also be sober and vigilant because our enemy the devil is always there to trick and

tempt us to do a bad things.

 On the other hand, according to I Timothy 6:17, Charge them that are in this

world, that they be not high-minded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God

who LIVETH us richly all things to ENJOY!” We should work as if that day was the last

day of your life but also ENJOY each day of your life as if you will live more than

million years. Let us enjoy all the things or should we say the Gifts that God hath

bestowed upon us. Don’t be too sidetracked with the worries and problems that we have,

let us remember that God’s hand is always there to help each and everyone of us in many

different ways.

Lastly, I said Perfectly because according to Matthew 5:48, Be ye therefore

PERFECT; even as your Father which is in heaven is PERFECT! We know for a fact

that this world is IMPERFECT, but as the word of God implies to my heart. Let us live

perfectly in this imperfect world, quite confusing right, but the truth is we are just

Pilgrims in this sinful world; this world is just Temporal place for us to live in. Just walk

with God in this sinfully distorted world. Let us always remember to be SUBMISSIVE

and FEARING to the one who created us, and PERFECTLY, ENJOY the life that he hath

given unto us.
