Avoiding Passivity in Your Spiritual Life

Have you been passive in your spiritual life and feel it's too late to change? Robert Bosley addresses this concern, reminding us that it's never too late to become intentional in our faith. He encourages us to put away idols and harmful habits and to use our past as a testimony to God's grace and faithfulness. Even if there are years of passivity, Bosley explains that God can change our hearts, leading us to be more active in worship and proactive in teaching His Word. He emphasizes that God's grace is sufficient to change our patterns and redeem even many lost years of idleness. Bosley stresses that being in a rut of passivity doesn't mean we have to stay there. God often calls his people to do uncomfortable things, but He equips us to do them. While it might be easier not to teach our children and lead our families in worship, God gives us the grace and ability to do so. We are called to trust in the Lord, rely on His strength, and take up the mission He has entrusted us with. It's never too late to become active in our faith. 2 Corinthians 12:9 (NKJV): "And He said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.' Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me."
