Not long ago I was at the coffee shop and someone came up to me and said, "Do you ever frown? You're always smiling!"
I was thankful that they thought that about me, because wherever I go I want my face, my life and my spirit to communicate that there is Someone greater living in me.
Faith.
When we get up on Monday morning and go to work, our workplace needs us to have life-giving faith.
If our churches are truly going to win their cities for Christ, they must have life-giving faith. It has to be alive and real, so people experience that faith.
It can't be just a statement, it has to be reality, and if it's going to be reality in our church, faith has to be growing in our heart.
We can't afford to have weak faith if we want to win our cities for Christ.
Every Christian should continually looking for those who are searching.
Once we've found them, we need to help them move from searcher to inquirer. This happens when the searcher meets someone whose life is filled with faith.
It's not what you say with your mouth, but what they see in your life. When they see the Spirit of God alive in you, and that your faith isn't religious they will ask, "What is different about you."
And we will answer, "It's Jesus living in me!"
Hopefully then we can help them moving from inquiring to discovery.
If we are going be life giving Christians, where faith is not just in our heads, but lived out everyday from our hearts, we have to know the Living God.
There is only one true God!
If our faith is going to be strong an life-giving; we have to know Him, his character so our faith is anchored in Him and who He is.
