Do You Really Believe What You Believe?

haha It's been such a long time I've not blog. Many things happened.

Anyways, this thought had been lingering in my mind for quite a bit these few days.

"DO YOU REALLY BELIEVE WHAT YOU BELIEVE?"

You heard from the news reports and read from the newspapers or learn from school that lightning strikes are dangerous and can be fatal. So, you heard it, and you believe it, and because you believe it, you avoid going swimming or standing in an open area when there's a thunderstorm. IF you do so, you really do believe that lightning strikes are dangerous.

You heard that fuel prices are hiking up by tmr. You believe it. Therefore, you refill your fuel tank before midnight in order to save some money. You really believe what you believe.

You know and believe that fire is capable of burning you. Therefore you stay away from the fire in order to avoid getting burn.

As Christians, we know and believe that:

God is

• awesome
• infinite in power
• infinite in wisdom
• sovereign over all.
• holy
• hates sin
• King
• .....

SO, as you can see right before the list, everytime we believe a certain fact, it's follow up with an action. When we believe in something, we tend to do something to act according to it.

hmmm.. Let's go through the list up there about what we believe God is..

It would be nice if we say that we believe it.. but do we really believe what we believe?
It's a question we should ask ourselves..

For example, if we believe He's infinite in wisdom, why sometimes we human don't trust that God knows what's best for us and we still do things our way?

If He's King why do we sometimes approach Him and act as if we're the boss instead?

do we really BELIEVE what we believe??

lets take some time to ponder through this question, of course all of us have failures and it is by God's grace and by Jesus' sacrifice that we are saved. Yet, it is best for us to take sometime to think through these now. SO, If we really believe, lets not just say we believe but lets seek out and really believe in it.
