I Got This Boys

So, we've been pounding out gratitude the last two weeks. It's always a great topic and one we need to keep being intentional about. But today I want to shift gears.

Let's talk about faith.

I've been watching a lot of news lately and it seems to me that we live in a world that won't take anything or anyone for what it is unless they have proof. It's how our culture has evolved. If we don't have facts about something, it simply can't be true or exist. So we have this world that fumbles along searching for proof and theories to back up what's around them. Pretty weak.

"For we walk by faith, not by sight."

2 Corinthians 5:7

But we Christians are set for a higher calling. We are living by faith, not by sight. Reminds me of the story when Jesus calmed the seas crashing on the fishermen in the book of Mark. Jesus asked them, "Why are you so afraid? Don't you have faith?" I like that story because I can imagine Jesus like a relief pitcher coming in to save a game, saying, "I got this boys." And He takes care of everything and closes it down.

Does your life seem like a never-ending cascade of stormy seas? Does it seem like the promises of God are nowhere close to being fulfilled? Take heart, and have faith in God.

Do not limit your vision to the horizon of your life here on earth. Look beyond the raging seas. Look up with faith to see things the way God sees them. When you have faith, you can see beyond your circumstances.

How's your faith today? You got it?

Have a great weekend.

Be Nice. Grace Wins.
