We believe God is living and at work.
Our faith is not in a historical model; it is in a living Lord.
This sense of the aliveness and nearness of God must permeate our evangelism. As Chesterton writes, “Plato has told you a truth; but Plato is dead. Shakespeare has startled you with an image; but Shakespeare will not startle you anymore. But imagine what it would be to live with such men still living, to know that Plato might break out with an original lecture tomorrow, or that at any moment Shakespeare might shatter everything with a single song.” The person who lives in contact with the living God is a person “always expecting to meet Plato or Shakespeare tomorrow at breakfast.”

Are you truly aware that God is alive? Have you realized that He is the living Lord who still transforms lives? Have you encountered Him lately? Has He changed your life?
Did you meet with Him today? Are you planning to meet with Him tomorrow?
