It is impossible to please God without faith (Hebrews 11:6). But faith in what? Two things. First, that God exists. That’s not so hard for me. Second, that God rewards those who seek Him earnestly. This is where I am challenged. Well, of course, I say I believe that God rewards those who seek Him earnestly. But do I live like it is a core conviction of my life? James says faith without works is dead. What I preach means nothing if I don’t live convinced that God rewards those who seek Him earnestly.
