Status: Active

   Did you know that, while simply sitting on the couch for an hour, you would have burned one calorie per kilogram of weight that you have? This translates to a 60 kg person burning about 60 calories after simply one hour on the couch by just sitting there.
   However, in your opinion, do you think that one would burn the same amount of calories if they were running for an hour straight? Do you not think if they were sweating and fully active that they would burn a lot more calories than just sitting on the couch?
   Passive attitudes and actions very rarely pay off more than active ones. For example, in reading, one just scanning an article probably wont get as much out of it as one who is intensively reading for a gaining of knowledge. Our Faith is the same way. We cannot wait to do God's commands, live for Him, and proclaim His name. We ACTIVELY do those things every day. We reach out to the lost and the hurting, not wait on them to come to our doorstep with a sign reading "lost and hurting." Christianity is not a passive thing, so I urge you, ACTIVELY live your life for Christ!
