Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. Proverbs 4:23 NIV
It doesn't matter how good an actor you think you are. If your heart isn't 'into' whatever it is you are doing, it will show out sooner or later. You're left 'faking' it, pretending to be interested, in love, OK with what's going on, etc. That cannot last long. Your true feelings will show, usually given away by a look, a snide remake made in a heated moment, something that blows your cover.
The same is true of your attitude toward God. There is no faking it. Not only can he see your true feelings, but others will be able to tell from your actions, from your words, from how you treat others, they will know where your heart truly lies.
So make sure you guard your heart every day and be the real you that God has called you to be.
