“What you believe should shape how you live every day.”

Despite the many challenges and distractions in the world, faith is not just for Sundays. It should be a daily practice.

It’s important to use your abilities and gifts to honor God in everything you do. Worship encompasses all aspects of life, including mundane tasks like doing homework or laundry. From the activities you participate in to the music you listen to, what you believe shapes how you live.

“I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.” Romans 12:1

The church is not just a building but the people of God who gather together for encouragement. You are to be doers of the word and not just hearers. (James 1:22) Living a Christian life is not about earning favor with God but about living the best life possible through faith. Your faith should guide your daily actions, not just your religious activities.

You can live out your faith in many ways. Practice honesty and integrity in your daily life. For example, tell the truth even when it is difficult. Dishonesty negatively affects your relationships with others and with God. Live a life that honors God, even in small actions like obeying your parents or doing chores.

Your faith can be lived out in various contexts, such as at home, school, and with friends. Respect others and work hard as acts of worship. Living your faith may require that you deny yourself, even if it means making difficult or unpopular choices.

Community and support are also important for living out your faith. Be intentional about reading God's word and spending time in prayer. You might also find it helpful to write down ways to apply your faith in different areas of your life.

It won’t always be easy to live out your faith in your daily life. Daniel certainly didn’t have it easy, when he continued to pray to God despite facing threats. His example shows how to live out your faith under pressure. Trust in God's strength and power. Honor Him in all circumstances. God will not leave you nor forsake you, even when things are difficult.

Some practical steps:

Build up a foundation of faith by spending time in God's word and in prayer.

Pick one area of life where you are struggling to walk with God, and be more intentional this week about what that looks like. Make a new habit to apply your faith practically in this area.

Write down one way you can apply your faith at school, at home, and with friends.
