With Room?
2 Corinthians 10:5
New American Standard Bible (NASB)
5 We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ.
Recently, I have begun to notice what exactly I have been saying when I ask for my daily coffee. I always say “with room”. But what exactly am I asking for? I have recently been convicted that I live life “with room” for other things. That room, however, should be filled with Christ. What do we live our lives for? What do we fill our hearts with that leaves room for things that are not Godly or Christlike? What captivates our thoughts?
I never really realized what I was saying when I said “with room”. It is in that almost daily activity that I realize where I am most deficient. The verse above confirms that as well.
We are to take every thought captive for God. But in our nature we leave room for other things. I pray as we go forth that this verse will convict us as we seek to have NO room for anything else but Christ!
Have a great week…
