Displaying HIm

Can I start w/ that my husband is amazing. But what I am about to write about, all credit goes to God. He works through my hubby in great ways & puts the perfect words in his mouth for me to think "oh poop, I'm NOT as great as I think I am or want to be." God you are all things good & I desire to know you & show others you
A few wks back the msg was The Hope for the Church I could go on about this msg. Def recommend listening. I never realized how many scriptures tell us to display God. Be Christ like, yes I know, but to display Christ (as a church & a person) like Jesus displayed God (John 17:21.......yep that's when I got the thought.
Here are some of the scriptures
*Welcoming one another:
Roman 15:7 Therefore welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God.

*Admonish one another:
Col 3:16 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.

*Carry one another's burdens
Galations 6:2 Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ

*Hospitable to one another
1pet 4:9 Show hospitality to one another without grumbling.

*Confess to one another
James 5:16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.

*Encourage one another
Heb 3:13 But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called "today," that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

*Forgive one another
Eph 4:32 Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you

I've had this post sitting & waiting for me to edit for the past wks, & never got around to it, but today I got a strong feeling that I needed to finish & post it. I pray you all listen to this & hear the truth of Christ. He wants us to display God. Are you following His (10) commandments? Can others see Christ in you? Are you reaching out to others? Or stuck on yourself?

God Bless
