Abounding in Christ March 02 of Abounding in Christ

Our faith is a living faith

Never a day goes by without our faith being tested and our patience being tried; this is because our faith is a living faith and is not dead.

It is this very characteristic quality of a living faith that causes many to depart from it, substituting for it man made religions that do not challenge the soul.

Anyone who has kept living house plants in his home has learned that they require daily attention and nurturing to remain healthy and green.

Artificial plants and flowers require no more effort or work than an occasional dusting to appear beautiful and alive; this is why many people opt for artificial plants over the living.

Brethren, it is the change in our lives that a living faith brings and the daily growth of living plants that make both preferable to the artificial.

Choose life over death.
