Often, when talking with people who are in crisis, they will say, "I may not attend church, but I do believe in God." Too many people seem to feel so safe saying those words, when in reality, they fail to realize God is looking for our words + our works + and our witness. There is a distinct difference in "Believing in God" and "BeLIVING for God."
This is simply another one of those moments where we must evaluate whether or not we are a "Fan" or a "Follower" of Jesus Christ. There are so many "faith" folks who seem to be convinced that the path they are traveling is secure and sure, yet the branches on the tree are bare and broken, and the womb of passion, purpose, and pursuit is clearly barren.
How does one assure themselves that they are seated with Christ, when they have initiate no fellowship with He or His Church?
God has not called us to a lifetime cruise of complacency that delivers a stark contradiction to those who are watching from the sidelines who know they are not on the field and moving towards the end zone. This is the hour to pursue intently after God and know that with every ounce of devotion, He is arranging the promotion we NEED in our lives. So, whatever you do, be certain to not only Believe in God, but make sure you are BeLIVING for God in all you think, say, and do...every day and in every way.
