Faith

I found this insightful little blog from my old tumblr account. Hope it gives you a little burst of encouragement just like it gave me. 

As I’m reading a new devotional book this morning, I came across these words which truly hit home, like a smack in the face to wake up to reality instead of dancing along in my own little world. 

From the book Praying God’s Word by Beth Moore:

"The Giant step in the walk of faith is the one we take when we decide God no longer is a part of our lives. He is Our LIFE." 

"Why does God allow us to spend so much of life in the heat of battle? Because He never meant for us to sip His Spirit like a proper cup of tea. He meant for us to hold our sweating heads over the fountain and lap up His life with unquenchable thirst."

Faith- holding strong to a belief and never once taking a step off from the path set before us. 

Leap of Faith- accepting the ability of not seeing what is to come, but still stepping out and walking the path instead of turning tail and running away.
