Mo Moments: Actions Speak

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, lean not to your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your path. Proverbs 3:5-6

Are you walking by faith or by fear? Do you live a life of great anticipation or great anxiety? Do your actions compliment your words? Do you believe that the one you get down on your knees and pray to will actually protect, provide and keep His promise when you get off your knees? What does your Christian walk say to those around you?

I pose these questions because it seems like more “Christians” are living a life of fear and not of faith. Those who profess to be sold out for Jesus live a life of caution, closed minded, in the moment existence. What is wrong with this picture? Those who claim to love the Lord, trust the Lord, and live the promise of the Lord more often than not can be found falling apart, worrying the worse and hesitating to live. While those who don’t profess to have a “personal” relationship with God live a life of freedom, liberation, out of the box, with a “once in a lifetime” passion.

How can you be a witness to the unchurched if you don’t stand out from them? Where is the boldness in how you approach life and all that life brings? You must be able to practice what you profess. You must be able to walk your talk. There is no witness if, your faith is viewed to be weak by those you are called to disciple. God allows life to be experienced by everyone…the just and unjust. This means ALL will experience loss and love. ALL will experience seasons of plenty and seasons of drought. And, in it all God is still God.
