The question

How can I see more of our Lord Jesus Christ in me than me in me?

The answer

Reading the Holy Bible daily, the Word of God on it daily would make you think of Him every minute of your life. From the moment you wake up and see the sunrays filling your room early in the morning, thank the Lord for the new day He has given you. Do not take anything for granted, but look for the Lord  around you on your way to school or work, you will see him in nature, in the sunny day with its brightness, in the rainy day that saves us  from draught, in the birds of the sky, in the beautiful trees and plants around you. Just open your eyes to what you see and remember the Creator of all things. The Holy Book of Psalms in particular contains wonderful psalms that would help you in this regard.

The Thanksgiving prayer is another way to see God. Meditate on the words as you pray it and you will realize that everything you have, everything you do, or say is from the Lord and is done  through His permission.
