Life

How much do you love God and how do you show it? What about when God doesn’t act the way you want Him to…what do you do then?

We like to “do” stuff.  We want to go places and make things happen…even in our spiritual life. And we want God to keep to our schedule.

Has spiritual dryness staked a claim in your heart? Have you descended into a cave of depression that borders desperation and despair?

Remove the bridle from a spirited horse and you’ll be in for a dangerous ride. So it is with the impulsive person. Without character to steer him or her, only tragedy awaits along the path of real life.

In the gritty, mean streets of real life who can you trust, the man or woman of character or those who will cut corners to win a temporary victory?

If someone took a magnifying glass to your real life and inspected it thoroughly, what would He find? Integrity in the tiniest places or compromise in the spots we thought were hidden?

In real life, we rarely take time to look at the character of people, so we settle for their outward appearance.

What happens on the day you decide God can’t meet your needs? When you choose to fill that empty space in your real life with someone or something other than Him?

In real life, designed by God for purpose and meaning, we're often confronted with trivial, hollow religion. A dead faith that sucks the marrow from living. How can we avoid its poison and thrive in the spirit of Christ?
