It’s time to get real and define what it means to be a Christian. There are too many people sitting in church missing the boat. Christianity is an action verb. You are a Christian if you are craving to know Christ and to be more like him. This means you are studying God’s word daily, looking for answers and clues to who God and Christ are. You are praying 24/7 listening and seeking the truth. You are becoming more dependent on Christ for all things, big and small. Here’s the big one…you are serving Christ in your home, work, school, church, and community, daily. The Holy Spirit is alive and well in you because you invite him to lead your life every morning, to fuel your heart, and focus your mind on Christ.
When you accepted Christ as your savior you acknowledged your sins and asked for forgiveness. God washed you clean with the blood of Christ and welcomed you with his loving grace. What have you done since? When you fill a pond with water it looks fresh and clean at first. If you don’t continue to filter and move the water it becomes stale and stagnate. It fills with all kinds of contaminants. Start moving the water in your life; pray, study, serve, and seek. Stop standing!
