I was thinking about the way we operate in the modern church. How mismatched some of our words and our actions are. We trust God - or so we say - but do we really? We may feel that we have good reasons not to. He may not have come through in some clutch situations the way we expected, but does that make him untrustworthy? An interesting question to ponder...
I suppose I came to this question while listening to some old Hillsong music: "The Power of Your Love" and "The Potters Hands". Wonderfully stirring music, it lifts your spirit but does your soul believe it? What would happen to me, if I actually believed the words,? What would happen to the "Church" if they believed the words they sang on a weekly basis? But it is so much more important that we act on our belief then just sing about it.
I guess love and action spell RISK. Until I am ready to take that Risk and you are prepared to take that RISK, not much will actually change.
