“so as to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him: bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God;” (Colossians 1:10, ESV) The ‘walk’ here is speaking of how we live our lives – the prayer here is for you / me / all in Christ to live in a manner ‘worthy of the Lord’ Wait Lord, I know I cannot live my life or even a minute ‘worthy of you’!!! No way! Yes, there is a way, and the way is Jesus. When we live with our eyes on Jesus, we are living in a manner worthy of the Lord because it is no longer, we who live (Galatians 2:20) but rather Christ in us and He is Worthy! When we live seeking to follow Jesus in all our ways, we are living in a manner worthy of the Lord in and through the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
Is this even possible, for me to live worthy of the Lord?
