There are many who think they do and there are a few who actually do wake up acknowledging Him and walking with Him throughout the day. I’m not saying that you have to live your life this way but if you are saved and a believer in Jesus for your salvation you are expected to live this way. Jesus said for us to “take up our cross daily and follow Him”. If you aren’t doing this as a believer…why not?
Living your life daily connected to Jesus is also a part of being His disciple. You might say that you didn’t sign up for being a disciple but you did. Giving your heart and life to Him is not a little bit here or there, it is giving everything that you are to Jesus and pledging to do so every morning when you wake up and begin your day. We are not supposed to pick and choose parts of God’s Word to believe and we can’t choose to give Him part of our life and keep back some areas of it. Your salvation is for your whole life…all of it. Not just a piece of it here and there.
When you wake up, you have been given a gift. We do not have a guarantee of days and years of life but God gives us those to prove to us how much He loves us. Most people do not look at their daily lives as gifts from God but each day truly is. Each of us, as believers, has an obligation to fulfill because of the mercy and grace that we have been given even though we don’t deserve it. Our obligation is to use our daily lives as our witness to others for Him so that our faith in Him is visible every day and not just on Sunday at church.
Every Christian is saved because God called you or me. We can’t just choose to be a Christian because even though we may live morally and go to church and act like one, without the Holy Spirit changing our hearts and us living a Christian life according to His leading there is no way that we can truly live a Christian life. Jesus said that we can do nothing without Him, so seek Him in the Bible and learn about Him. Follow the example set by His disciples.
