The Most Important Thing

Brad Pitt gave a revealing interview to Bild, a German magazine, in which he revealed that he didn't believe in God.

The reporter first asked if he believed in God.

"No, no, no!" Pitt said.

Next he asked if the actor's soul was spiritual, and Pitt replied, "No, no, no! I'm probably 20 per cent atheist and 80 per cent agnostic. I don't think anyone really knows. You'll either find out or not when you get there, until then there's no point thinking about it."

I know there are a lot of people who share this view when it comes to spiritual things. Unfortunately, many people rather not think about God and who He is or is not. It is alarming to me to hear people respond this way because I know they are headed for a great awakening. But also concerning is the hopelessness that must go with that. The nagging, at times aching, numbness that accompanies one who has chosen not to search for truth. I think of one like Mr. Pitt (I am a fan of his acting) who has settle for life as it is because he seems to have found a purpose - but not THE purpose. If one chooses not to even think about God, can one truly know who they are or who they are to become?

What I believe about God is the most important thing about me. ~ Tozer
