Magnify Christ

Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.    Philippians 1:20

How can a finite creature magnify our infinite Lord? It seems impossible, but through a consistent life and testimony, the Lord will be magnified in the heart of sinners. A telescope does not change the size of the stars, but it makes them appear bigger in the eyes of the beholder. Paul’s sincere desire was that through life or death, he would magnify Christ. When we follow his example, our Lord, who can appear so distant to mankind will be brought near so the sinner can hear Him say, “Come unto me and I will give you rest.” Magnify Him in your life today.  
--Milton Haack

Let thoughtless thousands choose the road, that leads away from God;
This happiness, dear Lord be mine, to live and die entirely Thine.
--Hoskins
