Living
with God
The Christian life could be summarized in three words
“I
believe God”
The Apostle Paul uttered those profound words when life
seemed at its lowest. Yet it was by faith that not only he survived, but also the two hundred and seventy six
people with him. They had other plans, but Paul’s choice to go God’s way
prevailed and no one was lost in the shipwreck. (Acts 27)
So it is for us. Beginning with God is important, but
living with God is also important.
Faith accepts that God is real, that God has revealed
Himself, and that He has revealed His ways for us. Faith believes that God is
personal and interacts with people. Faith claims the promises of God as
meaningful and powerful in ones’ life. Faith endures beyond the natural to know
and trust the one who is invisible and wise.
This is why reading God’s word, the Bible, and prayer are
important – hearing God’s promises and communicating to God our dependence on Him.
