How Do I Look?
"reputation of being alive - yet dead"
As a pastor it is so easy for me to be perceived and look alive to those who watch and listen to me. I have this whole "how to look spiritual and Christian" thing down pretty good.
But what's inside where no one sees except me and God? How's my heart? How's my mind? My attitude? And what am I doing to be alive on the inside? How am I cultivating and growing my trust in Christ? How am I growing my dependence and prayer and understanding and application of scripture? What about taking a sabbath? (let's don't talk about that one please.) Fasting? Praying for and engaging those far from God?
Oh Lord...it is easy to make a fresh commitment to cultivate my relationship with you at 6:00 am. But today, keep this fresh on my mind.
