Kingdom Living - The Commands of ChristSample
Commands of Christ: 85
Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God and in Me.
Jesus said this in the context of the Last Supper. He said this to strengthen the hearts of the eleven disciples in anticipation of their confusion and fear at what was about to happen over the following 24 hours. He wanted them to know that none of it would take God by surprise. The future, His future, and their future with Him were assured. We need to take His instructions to heart in the midst of our own dark days when fear and confusion are real temptations.

About this Plan
Our lives should be characterized by what Jesus commanded and as His followers we should be getting others to love (and thus obey) Him as well. This is not optional or for extra credit. It is the very essence of what it means to be His follower. "...teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you..." This is what Kingdom Living is all about.
