There is One Thing More Serious Than Not Believing

There is one thing more serious than not believing. It is to not care about believing. When you do not believe, God can still soften your heart and guide your footsteps. On the other hand if you don’t care that is quite another matter God cannot steer something that is not willing to move. Have you ever seen someone perform a Christ like act and say to yourself, “Now why didn't I think of that?”
Those whom are mindful enough to perform those acts of service are those who have mastered the art of awareness. They have formed the skills and habits of being sensitive to the needs of others before they think of themselves. How would you do that, one might say? The answer is simple; to form a mental habit on the average it takes around 30 to 40 repetitions of doing something. Basically it takes practice. The same goes for spiritual matters. If you want to become more sensitive to the spirit of God you must practice and master one principle at a time. Once something becomes a habit, you move on to the next desire habit. Habits are hard to break because we do it naturally without thinking.
