The Mind Of Christ

1 Corinthians 2:16 (NLT) 16 For, “Who can know the Lord’s thoughts? Who knows enough to teach him?” But we understand these things, for we have the mind of Christ.

One of the benefits of getting to know God is that we also begin to have the mind of Christ. People often tell me that they have a hard time understanding God – that He seems far away. But if we’re honest – have we taken the time to get to know Him? Have we spent time in His Word? In Prayer? I am blessed to know many elderly people. Over the years – they have come to realize the importance of God in their lives. They have developed an ongoing conversation with Him. To be around them – it as if God was sitting right next to them. They have such a peace. So – as the scripture states – Who can know the Lord’s thoughts? The answer is still the same. I can. He hasn’t moved. I just need to come along side Him and purpose in my heart to get to know Him better. It is then that we will have the mind of Christ.
