We are starting a series next week at our Church "Journey" titled "What If", and it got me thinking just that. What if I was as concerned about my bible as I was my cell phone? Oh, my gosh! where's my Bible? I can't leave the house without my Bible! What if I spent as much time praying to Jesus, as I did watching TV? Half the time! What if I really loved my wife as much as Christ loved the church? Is that even possible? According to Christ it's really not an option. What if I practiced the fruits of the spirit? Love, patience, joy, peace, gentleness, faith, kindness, self control (woo) and goodness? What if I really did? We are so good about practicing the rotten fruit of the evil spirits. Hate, anxiety, depression, conflict, hardness, unbelief, bitterness, rage, and mean-ness. It's no wonder we don't see the glass as half full, yet always as half empty. What if lived like I really believed that Jesus was all powerful? What if I really wanted God to control my life? What if I really wanted His advice? What if I listened to what He says? What if I really applied His words to my life.
What If?
