Believing is not just a “one and done” thing. Believing and abiding is living with and living in the reality of believing. If you are going to believe and abide, you will need to answer these questions: What gives you comfort? - Abide in love. What do you feed on? - Abide in hope. How should you spend your time? - Abide in joy. These are the characteristics of God in which you should abide.
