What if God was real?

I was reading the Sermon on the Mount in preparation for worship tomorrow and as I re-read the things Jesus says about how we are to live I found myself getting worked up in the usual way -- it just seemed so completely overwhelming.  And then I heard Storm Bailey's voice in my head saying, "What if God was real?"

Right.  God.  Of course Jesus is going to ask us to live in a way that depends on God being real.

So what if we lived as though God is real?  What if, instead of backing away from the impossible things Jesus asks us to do we instead believed that God is who He says is and will do what He says He will do?  What would that look like?

I think that might look like the Kingdom of God.
