1 John 4:12 "No one has ever seen God, but if we love each other, God lives in us and His love is made complete in us."
Lord, I have heard it said that I am the only Jesus some others might see. They can't see You, Jesus, in the flesh, and no one has ever seen the Father or the Holy Spirit (except if the form of a dove). You make Your love complete in us for the benefit of the Family, but also to draw others to You. If I allow my flesh to rule in me, I will not love others unconditionally and will most likely draw others away from You, not to You. My flesh is pretty ugly, selfish, arrogant, prideful, and judgmental.
I beg of You, Dearest Lord, keep me in the Spirit and drive my flesh far from me. My flesh is like an angry pit bull. Keep it on a very short and very thick chain. I want others to see You in me and in other true believers so we might draw others to You!
