I want more of JESUS!

I so desperately long for more of Christ - I must be more like him. John the baptist hit the nail right on the head when he said...

John 3:30 - He must become greater; I must become less.

As I reach out to people they don't need me, they need him; I don't need me, I need him.

I need...
1. Christ's character, not my charisma.
If its just my charm it will fail, but God's character gets through anything
2. Christ's compassion, not my concern
If its just my concern then I can blow people off, compassion can't take a step without being led by God.
3. Christ's cause, not my charge
If its just my charge & excitement then eventually it will flame out; God's cause never dies.
4. Christ's cross, not my change
I could change things all I want but it means nothing if that change isn't a result of the cross.

The closer I get to Jesus the less of me that exist. 

Getting closer to Him,
Coach Luis
