“To live is Christ and to die is gain.”
Philippians 1:21
It becomes so easy to focus on the last section of this verse and contemplate just how amazing heaven will be. Yet, the importance of ‘to live is Christ’ cannot be overstated. Paul is saying that everything he has tried to be and everything he is, and everything he looked forward to being pointed to Christ. Paul’s singular aim was to bring glory to Jesus. Thats such a challenge to me. “To live is Christ” means that Christ is our focus, our goal, and our chief desire. Christ is the centre point of our mind, heart, body and soul. Everything that we do, we do for Christ’s glory.
He should be our life.
