Not just when your at work, church, or in public, but when the company goes home, and your home alone are you still walking w/ GOD? Please be honest. Or do you get a little to relaxed and let it slip your mind... Do you pray alone? Do you read your bible alone? Are you serving GOD alone? Sometimes I need to re-focus myself, how about you???

Yes, my husband gets tired of it sometimes and my other relatives call me the warden.
I pray much of the time. At home, while watching TV, driving down the road (eyes open of course).
I read the Bible at home and work and also study it.
We all have to re-focus. We are all tempted to "relax" from God. Re-focusing is a good thing. It's good that you recognize the need.

Hello Family Man,
Just remember that it is by faith that we are christian, putting on a show for people is not what makes us christian and believers in Jesus. The bible says for the Justice shall live by faith.
God knows that there will be times when we don't feel like praying, there are going to be times when we as christian are not going to always have the right attitude unless we are prayed up.
When we as christian are not prayed up we are capable of doing anything, but when we are prayed up- the spirit of the Lord keeps us in order.
Dear Family Man, realize that we are still human being and that we are not perfect, we are going to make mistakes at work, church anywhere in public even at home if we are not prayed up.
Stop beating yourself up, and please what ever you do pray and ask God to help in the areas that you are weak in, just your thoughts of wanting to correct things is an act of faith, and God will honor that. Good Luck Brother-Love your honesty.

I believe God is always watching and we will have to give an account for everything we do. So we should be always walking with God and praying to Him. It is probably just laziness when we don't. Being the sinful people that we are, it is easy to want to do whatever we want and not focus on God, but I believe that if we read His word on a consistent basis and hide His word in our hearts He will remain close. Draw nigh to God and He will draw nigh to you.

I relax alittle but MY LIFE RELIES ON GOD!!!!!!!! I say the rosary almost every Sunday at my house with my Mom, Dad, and sibblings. I cant fall asleep if i dont say my prayers at night. I cant start my day right without saying a morning offering. You dont need to be a saint at home but you do need to depend on God.
say a morning offering and your whole day is about GOd.

I will admit, it is harder for me at home....I have the kids and husband to take care of too and it seems to be too much at times...it is good to re-focus and try to keep your mind on God, and I would have to honestly say...it is hard to keep Godly 24 hours a day in this world...He knows our hearts though, and He knows how we feel...

No, hardly ever.About the only time that I am a Christian is when I am at church on Sunday.

I never read my Bible. It is better if I do not pick it up. I see no comfort in those cold words. Looking into the faces of my loved ones, and my pets - there I see God's love. Godly or not, I try my best - even when I am outside of the public eye.
