In Acts 24 Paul is on his way to Rome and continues to have high-stakes conversations regarding Jesus and salvation. In this chapter Paul has a conversation with a leader named Felix. Felix makes a subtle but relevant statement, "I'll listen to you when it's convenient for me". How often do I follow God only because it's convenient?

I often hear from non-Christians and skeptics say, "The Bible makes God sound like some kind of power hungry dictator! Why does the Bible say we have to live to "please him"? That doesn't sound fun!" The problem with this statement is that they're viewing our relationship with God as a tyrant to a slave but as Christians we're to view our relationship through the lens and motivation of love. We seek to please those we love not because we fear them but because we care for them!
