walk in Him

Col 2:6 Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving. ... For in him the whole fullness of [the Godhead] dwells bodily,10 and you have been filled in him, who is the head of all rule and authority.
 
3:12 Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, 13 bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. 14 And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. 15 And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful. 16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. 17 And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Walk in Him.  The fullness of the Godhead is in Christ, and He is in us.  (Wow!  That makes my head explode.)

Take on His character, and live Him.  Not just live like Him, but live Him.  Consume His words; digest His teaching; metabolize His character.  We are His body, we are His ambassadors.

Heavenly Father, you are amazing!  Your plan is incredible!  Your Spirit dwells in my spirit!  And I have zoe life in you!  Hallelujah!  Lord, may my words and actions clearly communicate you!  Lord, may your power and life be evident through me.  I love you, and I ask in the name of Jesus Christ.
