What do you really believe? It is as a man thinketh in his heart that matters, says the Bible, and this means the heartfelt conviction as distinct from mere formal assent.
If you want to know what you really believe, simply watch what you do. We always do what we believe, although we frequently talk differently. If you feel that you are not making the most of your life, change your beliefs. Your present beliefs must be wrong if they are not producing harmony and satisfaction.
Start believing in health; start believing in prosperity; start believing in the Christ in those about you; start believing that your own divine Selfhood is rapidly unfolding. Act as though you believed these things and the results will surprise you.
For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve, Saying, Fear not, Paul…Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even as was told me (Acts 27: 23-25).
“Act as if what you believe is true”. This is one of the great truths of existence. We do this every day, whether we realize it or not. If we are not acting in accordance with our faith, then we do not truly believe that which our faith teaches. We may espouse it, go to church each time the door is open and feel that we truly believe God’s word. Yet, if we are not acting according to those truths, then we are misleading ourselves.
This is the toughest test of faith. It is not easy, in fact, it is the hardest thing we could do. However, if we do it, then we will see the fruits of God’s grace and love in every aspect of our lives. If we don’t act according to our faith, then we need to revisit that which we think we believe.
Acting from faith,
