Faith begins with a intellectual assertion to something’s validity. Thus, all worship, trust, love, and faithfulness that extends from that initial assertion is based on a choice; and therefore is, itself, a choice. Worship is a choice, as is trust, love and faithfulness. However, they are all choices that we must allow to permeate every single facet of our being until they move from being obligations to become passionate desires. No one here contends that Christianity is easy. It is certainly hard work. Anything worth living for is generally hard work to maintain. How much more something worth dying for? But, humanity has to move from constantly throwing the ball into God’s court and heaping constant demands on him left and right. Rather than beginning with God, we must realize the truth that, because of what God has already done, the demand really begins with us. Christianity is not as concerned with what God has done as it is our response to what he has done. The ball is most certainly in our court.
