”That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death” | Philippians 3: 10

I know that there are some things that are important to us; there are some people that are important to us. However, in light of our great need of Christ nothing else is that important.

We need Him. As the woman with the issue of blood said, “If I can but touch the hem of his garment, I shall be made whole.”

Without Him we are lost, undone, and unaccepted by the Father.

There is no material thing or human relationship that can supply my spiritual need; however, in Christ we are complete. “For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:” (Colossians 2: 9-10)

In Christ we have all that we need to stand in God’s presence accepted. “But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4: 19)

I cannot express how important it is to know Christ; all material things will burn up, and all fleshly relationships will be dissolved. However, our relationship with Christ will never be dissolved nor diminished, and it will only grow sweeter.

Judge the importance of everything in light of Him.
