Life Lessons from King Asa

In our faith walk, it is important that we not only begin the race by trusting Jesus as Savior.  But it is equally important that at the end of our life, we finish well; that our faith hasn’t diminished but grown.  Too many begin well but fail to finish well.  I was slightly disappointed when the Colt defense seemed to have given up against their opponents.  They were on the field, but the fire and intensity were missing.  Too many Christians follow and serve Christ by going through the motions.  Their intensity and passion give way to half hearted indifference and effort in living for Christ.  We are the light of the world, and if our witness is half-hearted and without passion, then it should be of no surprise when the world isn’t impressed or attracted to “our light”.  Jesus said we are the light of the world.  Let’s run the race of life with faith in confidence from beginning to end.  After all, Christ guarantees us that in Him we are more than conquerors.
