Symptoms

The Good News Today Is...abiding in Christ will give you peace. I'd like to share something I keep hanging on my refrigerator....symptoms of abiding in Christ:
  • A tendency to think and act spontaneously rather than from fears based on past experiences.
  • An unmistakable ability to enjoy each moment.
  • A loss of interest in judging self.
  • A loss of interest in judging others.
  • A loss of interest in conflict.
  • A loss of interest in interpreting the actions of others.
  • A loss of ability to worry.
  • Frequent, overwhelming episodes of appreciation.
  • Contented feelings of connectedness with others and nature.
  • Frequent attacks of smiling through the eyes of the heart.
  • Increasing susceptibility to love extended by others as well as the uncontrollable urge to extend it.
  • An increasing tendency to let things happen rather than to make things happen.
If you have all or most of these symptoms you are showing signs of a life of abiding in Christ. Consider yourself truly blessed.
