What Is Better?

Yet if I live, that means fruitful service for Christ.
I really don't know which is better.
(Philippians 1:22, NLT)


Good Morning,

We watched the coach of a high school baseball team be thrown out of the game after using inappropriate language. Before leaving, he argued with the umpire as both teams observed him. In just a few moments, he relayed a message by his words and actions that will be remembered.

How we respond to circumstances will be observed and remembered by someone.

The Apostle Paul discussed productivity in Philippians 1:

Yet if I live, that means fruitful service for Christ: The Apostle Paul believed living on earth had one sole purpose, which was productiveness for Christ. The abiding power of Christ connects an individual with the purpose of God. The connection is energizing and life-changing.

Are you experiencing the energizing and life changing power of Christ?
What is better?

I really don't know which is better: The Apostle Paul lived out his belief that Christ was the sole purpose to do anything and everything. Evaluate your thoughts, words, and actions.

Are you living out your belief in Christ?
What is better?

Are you productive for Christ?
What is better than to be productive for Christ?


Learning with you that nothing is better than living for Christ,
Kerrie
