You Won't Relent

My favorite worship song right now is You Won't Relent by Jesus Culture. I listen to it all the time. Sometimes i just put my iPod on repeat and listen to it over and over again. I love it! Here are my favorite parts of the song...
Come be the fire inside of me
Come be the flame upon my heart
Come be the fire inside of me
Until You and I are One
This part is one of my favorites because its what I want. I want God to be the fire in me so that I am always living for him no matter what! And the last part saying "Until you and I are one" reminds me of Philippians 2:5, which says...
In your relationships with one another, have the same attitude of mind Christ Jesus had.
I want to be like Christ in all aspects of my life so that its like we are one and a big way to do that is talked about in the verse above. I want my relationships with others to be like Jesus' relationships on earth, I want to be a humble servant. But I cant do that without Christ being the fire inside of me! I cant rep God without him in me! I also really like this part...
I don't want to talk about You
Like You're not in the room
I want to look right at You
I want to sing right to You
This part talks about kind of the same thing. But it makes me think "Do I act like I would if Christ was in the room all the time?" and the answer is no. I wish it was yes but sadly its not. I want to live my life for Christ 24/7. I want to look at him and sing to him. I want to praise him with everything I do! I want that!
But how am I going to get these things? I need to spend time with him one on one everyday and when I am not talking to him or reading and memorizing his love letter to me then I need to be praising him with everything I do. And with his help I am going to try my best to do that!
Is Christ the fire inside of you? Do you act like you would if he was in the room all the time?
