I have come to understand this in a whole new way~ =} (shared by Lorna)
"Only he who believes is obedient, and only he who is obedient believes." ~ The Cost of Discipleship
God calls us to embrace His words and His ways. This is the first call to obedience. It also remains the last call, for the Christian life is nothing more or less than a continual response to God's Word and Spirit in faith and obedience. Faith is not simply accepting that the things that God has revealed are true, but it involves the challenge that we order the whole of our lives accordingly. Walking this journey will always involve risks and requires the beneficent grace of God.
Meditation
Christian belief leads to a relationship and intimacy with God, and this intimacy expresses itself in deeds of faith and acts of love.
