How to Experience Christ

I have been doing some studying in Ephesians recently, preparing some devotions and messages for CSI Ministries. The following is a part of my studies today. I am reminded through my study today of the Christian principle "Less of me, more of Him."

The Holy Spirit builds us up in the body of Christ. All that Christ came to do, we experience through the Holy Spirit. Did you catch that little nugget? All that Christ came to do, we experience through the Holy Spirit.

We get to experience all that Christ came to do. That is so exciting to me. To be transparent, I do not take enough time or use enough focus to really experience this enough. It "happens" through the Holy Spirit.

Ephesians 4:13

The gifts and moments of relationship we experience are for the whole body of Christ, not just for us. I fact, our individuality must "go" in order that our personal life may be brought into fellowship with the Father.

Fellowship with the Father. Not only is that something we desire, it is something He desires.
