Doing is Believing

What Do You Think? Wednesday

“Sometimes I don’t know if I believe the Bible,” one of my mentees recently said to me. This she said because “If I believed the Bible then I would live differently.” She had great insight into herself. Our beliefs should dictate our actions and when it doesn’t, surely our beliefs or our actions need to change. If, as Christians, our actions don’t line up with the Bible then we should change our actions to line up with the Word. But what if you find that belief is not your issue? You’re just emotionally, spiritually or physically too tired to live the Word. What if you don’t do the Word because you are too tired to fulfill the Word? Where does that leave you?

Have you doubted God’s Word or just been too tired to fulfill it? Even strong black women have doubts and don’t do the Word sometimes, but what is the recourse for getting back to following the Guidebook for our lives? I really want to know what you think. Please, chime in.
