Practice

Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me –

put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

Philippians 4:9

 

We spent years practicing for a career or goal or a sport or a hobby. Michael Jordon, a basketball great if there ever was one, practiced, often long after the team had knocked off.

 

We must practice our faith. It doesn't come naturally. Many of us stopped any sort of real practice when we were early teens, graduating out of church learning.

 

But here is our Creator's prescription.

 

·         Find a mentor

·         Practice under your mentor's guidance

·         Thrive regardless of the circumstances

 

Are you at peace, real contentment? Do you have a spiritual mentor, someone further down the Journey than you are, who you are willing to listen to? Practice your faith today.
