A Hidden Life

Colossians 3:3 in the NLT Bible says, "for you died to this life, and your real life is hidden with Christ in God."  I have this weird imagination and I was thinking how great it would be if that were truly the case.  Imagine not being found.  Temptations couldn't fined you.  Sickness couldn't get to you.  The enemy wouldn't know where you went or even if you existed.  In a real sense that is just foolishness, however in a spiritual sense it may not be so far fetched.  In Ephesians 1:23 the word says that the church is His body, and it is made full and complete by Christ.  So if we are in the body of Christ and if we are hid in Him, them in a spiritual way we are in hiding.  The things of this world shouldn't hinder us.  We should have diplomatic immunity from so much of the things that defeat this world.  We should be living above the world, not affected by it.  Fears should be gone, peace in it's place.  Trampling under our feet the things the enemy has thrown before us to trip us and defeat us.  Over comers walking in victory and believing the promises of God.  My God is able!!  I sincerely believe that God truly wants us to live that way.  Total victory, and nothing else.  I'm not there by a long shot, and you aren't either, but we can strive to be the best in Christ.
