Belief
I have been reminded recently both theoretically and practically that YOU CANNOT LIVE DIFFERENTLY THAN YOU BELIEVE. I can say I love my wife, but if I say mean things to her, never spend time with her, or am unfaithful to her then my love is only words. True love is expressed in action.
The same is true of our relationship with Christ. If I say I trust Him with my life, but worry and fret and am constantly burdened down by the load of life then where is the trust? Likewise, we can say we trust Him for our salvation proclaiming that He is "Lord of our lives," but if we do not live in obedience to His Word then our expression of faith is only words.
The truth is - YOU CANNOT LIVE DIFFERNTLY THAN YOU BELIEVE. So what does your "living" say about your "believing"? Perhaps it is time to put your faith into action!

David said it all: I saw God before me for all time. Nothing can shake me; He's right by my side. I'm glad from the inside out, ecstatic; I've pitched my tent in the Land of Hope. I know You'll never dump me in Hades; I'll never even smell the stench of death. You've got my feet on the life-path, with Your face shining sun-joy all around.
