Radiate!!

 We as Christians, are called to do two things specifically. Love God, and Love People! ... most of us know this..."but it can be so easy to Love God and so hard to love people sometimes!", we may think. We must realize, God has called every Christian to radiate, illuminate, and resonate Him! ...Nothing more, Nothing less, and Nothing else! These words all have very similar meanings, with little differences.

radiate:

/v. ˈreɪdiˌeɪt; adj. ˈreɪdiɪt, -ˌeɪt/ Show Spelled [v. rey-dee-eyt; adj. rey-dee-it, -eyt]  verb, -at·ed, -at·ing, adjective

–verb (used without object)

....we must radiate Christ!... if Christ is our center (which He is)...we have to let Him shine through us! When we think of the word radiate...we think of.. something that is...coming from an inside source, and when you get close to it, you can feel the heat from it usually. When people come near us, they should be able to feel the love of Christ just steaming off of us, they should be effected by just being around us. What is inside of us (or Who rather) should be radiating off of us...! When something is radiating, it is evident, you never have to tell someone that it is, When YOU are radiating Christ it will be evident, you won't have to tell people you are radiating Him, they will just know. Whenever people come around you, they should feel Christ, not because of what you are SAYING but just by how you live. ..you know that old saying... "Actions speak louder than words"?...I've found that to be one of the most truest statements ever. People will believe about 10% of what you say, and not even all of what you do, but still, they believe what you do and how you act way more than what you say!..one of my favorite quotes is by Mother Teresa...and it is one I believe we should all live by, and I believe it explains how we should radiate Christ... 

 “Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile." ...When we are radiating Christ it's not something we will have to work up or try to always remember to do, it's something that naturally happens. 

We radiate Christ, when we spend time with Him in private, when no one is around and no one knows what is going on. Our lives, should SCREAM to others the love of Christ! Without even saying a word!

....Love wins!.... =)

You don't have to tell people you spend time with Jesus in private and love Jesus, when you do, it'll naturally show. We will naturally radiate when we learn to fall in love with the secret place. 

When Moses came down from the mountain the Word says he was literally glowing, the people could tell he had been in the presence of God, Moses didn't have to tell them, it was evident! 

When someone has been in the presence of God, you can tell!, You can see it, feel it, and just sense it altogether!

Radiating is simply an outward expression or something that naturally happens when the outward is abiding in the inward.

When you are radiating, you naturally will love people, because it's the love of God that will be coming out of you! 

When you radiate Christ, people will love being around you, not because of you but because of Christ IN you and the love of Christ radiating from you! Radiate Him and His love, so people will come to know Him! Never radiate for the sake of yourself or having a good name or good rep. As soon as you do that. You've totally missed it. Radiate ONLY to glorify God, and to direct others to Him... this being said... actions speak louder than words! DON'T speak! Just LIVE! =)

 

btw... who you are is always radiating no matter what... why not radiate love? =)

..............Christians! We MUST radiate!...............
