It can be easy to view our faith as primarily intellectual or mental, but that is not how the Bible describes it. We were made for every part of our lives to be connected to God and to express and act on our faith in outward ways. And this is more than a one-time event! This is ongoing, developing work – so let these words from today’s reading challenge and encourage you to keep going.

Read Colossians 2:6-12.

The Message paraphrase says it this way: “School’s out; quit studying the subject and start living it! And let your living spill over into thanksgiving.”

Pause to consider: What would it look like to be faithful and follow Jesus today? What is one practical step you can take in that direction?
