Content in ChristSample

LIVING OUT YOUR FAITH 

How do you "live out your faith"? Is it possible to find contentment through obedience in everyday living? God wants us to live out what we believe by serving others. There is much fruit that we can bear in our lives and the lives of others as we live out what we believe by acts of daily obedience and kindness. As we live out our faith with the Spirit of God active in us, we will be in step with the Spirit who dwells within us.

"If we live by the Spirit, let us also keep in step with the Spirit." 

Galatians 5:25

There are acts of kindness and love waiting for those who are willing to act and share their faith. God wants us to keep doing good even when we may feel unappreciated or unwanted. When weariness sets in, God will strengthen us for the work He needs us to do. We will reap contentment as we help others. Do not give up doing good, as the seeds you plant today, will grow fruit that will last forever!

"And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. So then, do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith."

Galatians 6:9-10

How can you do good to others? Is there someone who needs you to keep in step with the Spirit? The Spirit is calling you to serve..Serving others will give you a purpose and a calling. A heart filled with purpose and passion for Christ and a mind set on the things above will lead to a life of contentment.

"When Christ who is your life appears, then you will also appear with him in glory." 

Colossians 3:4

Dear Lord,

I know that You want me to help others as I live out my faith. I will grow stronger as I walk with You. I am pressing forward to greater opportunities with You as I stay in step with the Spirit in me. I will find contentment through my obedience to You and service to others.

In Jesus' name,

Amen
