Healthy Christ-followers pay attention to how they are living life. A life of love is one that imitates the sacrificial nature of God. When Jesus gets in your life, then your standard changes from “how should I handle this?” to “how would Jesus handle this?” Developing Christ-centered ethics isn’t simply a matter of not doing certain things; it’s also a matter of cultivating new ways of doing things. We are constantly seeking to close the gap between what we believe and how we behave. Why? Integrity lies in the gap between.

It's to know we are loved by him and that we are loving towards others. To be rooted and established in God’s love means we are drawing from God what we need to live on and live for.

When you are physically hungry, you’ll eat almost anything. The same is true for spiritual hunger. When we’re spiritually hungry, some people will settle for anything that momentarily fills them up. What's the problem with a momentary solution? They don’t last. Our real need is internal – to have a sense of worth and purpose. But momentary solutions are often focused on the outside. Here’s the good news we’re going to explore in this message: When Jesus dwells in your heart through faith, you no longer need an external source of validation.Watch more videos at the Mountainview YouTube channel.
