Boredom

Doesn't being a Christian sound boring to unbelievers?
Focusing on the eternal rewards God promises to believers should make life continually exciting. If we become bored in our Christian life it is because we are not walking with God and experiencing the daily blessings he is ready to give us.

Hebrews 6:12 - That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

Isn't a sinful way of life more exciting?
With God, it is hard to get bored, for his reach is as far as the universe and as broad as eternity.

Proverbs 14:14 - The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a good man shall be satisfied from himself.

Chasing other gods is a tiring business, one pursuit after another, ends with disappointment and dissatisfaction. Sin has a debilitating sameness at its core. God alone truly satisfies.

Jeremiah 2:2 - Go and cry in the ears of Jerusalem, saying, Thus saith the LORD; I remember thee, the kindness of thy youth, the love of thine espousals, when thou wentest after me in the wilderness, in a land that was not sown.

Promise From God:
Galatians 6:9 - And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
