A Few Questions.....?

Random questions for the day since I haven't been able to think of anything to write for almost two weeks....

Do you feel comfortable in your life?
Do you consider yourself rich?
Or are you a "poor" college student, high school student.... a "poor" underpaid worker? 
Do you ever consider yourself lukewarm?  Or do you feel like you keep your relationship with Christ on the up and up?
Are Love and Grace the first things that come to peoples mind when they think of the way you live your life?  Or do you think that something else defines the way people view you?
Do you truly believe words like Romans 6:8?.............................................
If today God asked you to give it all, your life, loved ones, friends, Girlfriend (or Boyfriend), house, and asked you to go live on the street with nothing but the clothes on your back and a bridge to keep you from the rain would you go? What if he then said "I am all you need", would that matter?  Would you care?  Would the comfort you now find yourself in keep you from going?

In no way do I want it to seem like I would answer any of these questions in the way I believe we should.  I am simply asking the questions that are being asked of me.  I am simply a work in progress and these questions are questions I am seeking to be able to answer in the way God wants me too.   I really would love it if you would just give me a quick thought on the questions I asked.  I know, in all honesty, that few of you will be brave enough to post a comment because you don't have the answer.  But even if you have nothing to say I ask that you think about the fact that today God asks not a little of our time but rather asks for our life.  He doesn't ask for us to live for him but rather he calls us to die with him.   I know i find this to be single handedly the hardest part of following God.  But please think about it.
 



 Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him. (Romans 6:8)
