Inside Out

If the heart is your feeling, the mind is your thinking and the body is your doing then the soul would be our inner being. Our thoughts, emotion and action are very much the reflection and expression of our inner being or self. The person we are inside will determine our thinking, feeling and doing. In the same way, our everyday thoughts, emotion and action will have it’s part in moulding and shaping who we are.

Therefore as christian who are united in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ should have Christ formed within us (Gal 4:19) through the Holy Spirit taking on the Person of Christ as the “person” we are (Gal 3:27). So that our thoughts, emotion and action will be like Christ. And the more we imitate Christ in our thinking, feeling and doing, the more Christ is formed in us. This is a process, untill the Kingdom of God shall come in full.

Let us echo Paul’s desire in which he said :
“I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.” (Gal 2:20)
