"Why do you call Me, 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I say?I have to admit, this is one of those areas I constantly struggle with. I was raised in the church, and been through what I'd like to think is fairly thorough. I know what I'm supposed to do, how I'm supposed to act, and how I'm supposed to feel about it.
However, I find that "expected Christian behavior" to be a constant struggle. I almost resent the "good Christian" persona I'm expected to follow, because it's so inauthentic. I don't feel that I'm being molded or shaped to be more like Christ, but instead just learning to wear the mask better while everything behind it is simmering that the requirement.
