This almost funny because it seems so stupid, but unfortunately it's really common. Don't you think God is sick by professing to be Christians always looking for the loop-holes? You know the ones who say, "Jesus drank, so I can! or what's the maximum I can drink? What's the minimum time I need to put in to be right with God. How many times should I go to church to feel good about myself? How long should I pray so God knows I care?".
It's the entire mindset of: "Whats the absolute minimum I have to do in order to be in good standing with God?" That's just playing games with God! We all have times we are distracted, and fumble on the wrong path, but if this is just the way it is there is a problem.
Friends, I hope none of you have this mind-set. But if you do, it will not give you joy -- and those life changing encounters with the Lord Jesus will be so rare you may even forget about Him for many years. Jesus Christ is joy and peace and love, the Holy Ghost is the most wonderful person and presence I've ever experienced, and if you've met Him I know you know this too.
Let's be honest with God and realize where we aren't being sincere, and try to do something about it!
