Faith

I imagine that God wishes we would be a little more like children at times. As a child, when given a possible opportunity to lead in any capacity, we didn’t stop to think how long the act of service would last. We didn’t care so much what would be required of us … would it cost us anything, or if there might be something else that we would rather do.
When God calls us into service, often the timeliness of our response is a measure of our faith. Procrastination is a sign that we are not trusting that God will lead the way and guide our paths. Procrastination leads to confusion and indecision, giving the enemy an opportunity to work at convincing us that we are unworthy, unqualified and incapable of carrying out God’s will. As a result, we become paralyzed with fear, doubts and insecurities.
Stepping out in faith requires us to fully rely on God, and not on our own assessments of our abilities. Philippians 4:13 reads “I can do everything through Christ which strengthen me."
Romans 8:28 reads..... And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
Colossians 3:23 reads....And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;
Be strong have faith!
