The Reality of Christ In Me

Jesus came here to earth as a man
to reveal God and what He's like
teaching of our heavenly father who's real
for this Jesus is God proving there alike

He taught His kingdom is heavenly
but it was on earth that it was brought
drawing many into this for He was king
as some missed the reality as they thought

Jesus is a living saviour no doubt
He's proved what a blessing to receive
as He comes to live in His people
assuring His presence to all who believe

Changing one's circumstances of life
won't do anything for your soul
for you need the holy spirit's dwelling
to kick towards your spiritual goal

The secret is knowing Christ for real
His presence being felt within
the reality of Christ in me
this is HIs victory forever to win

Quote:
( "The secret is Christ in me, not me in a different set of circumstances.")
- Elisabeth Elliot (1926- 2015)
