"Why do you call me, 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I say? Luke 6:46
Sometimes people equate being a Christian with simply being an American or getting baptized as an infant or being a certain denomination or even growing up in a ‘churched’ home. All four of those are no guarantee of your love for the Lord or even your desire to follow Him. You have to decide on your own that you will follow the Lord and have a desire to live for Him.
After you do, you are on a journey and no one is perfect, but the main thing is in order to know Him better, you must read His word, the Bible, to grow closer. If you are clueless where to begin start either in the book of John in New Testament or the Psalms or Proverbs. Make Jesus more of a habit than pursuing worldliness. Make sure wherever you go to show God’s love to people around you no matter how you may feel about them and ask God to help you love the unlovely.
PRAYER: Give me a pure heart Lord. Help me never become haughty in my faith or walk with you. I desire to grow closer. Help me steer clear of stumbling blocks. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
