Can you imagine, getting in your car, turning on the ignition, placing it in forward or reverse, and flooring it - WITHOUT EVER GRABBING THE STEERING WHEEL?
That is what most people do every day with their spiritual life when they think life happens instead of taking charge of their spirit power and STEERING their life for the desired outcomes.
The only thing worse is a Churchy Christian who turns the car on, puts it in neutral, and then STANDS ON THE BRAKES to make sure nothing goes wrong. This too is a waste of spirit power.
I used the be one of the latter. May now be erring in the direction of the former. Now there is a realization that will hurt…..

Nice comments. I used to be the same. My heart was definitely not in the right place. I think it’s just way too easy for Christians to simply do nothing except attend church on a Sunday. If only we would realize what is waiting for us in the future - I think we’d all be a LOT more energetic now!

How amazing is that?!!! We need to be steering in the ways of Christ and leading others to faith in Jesus.
