Trust in God – Work in Progress

The Building Blocks of Faith

Let’s put ourselves in the story of Matthew 8 for just a moment to see what we learn about ourselves and the character of God.

I wonder if, during difficult times, Jesus marvels at the faith that we display in those little moments as we go about our days.

Walking humbly with God isn’t pressure-filled. It is embracing who he has called and empowered us to be.

Our view of justice has become one of punishment and payment instead of life-change and restoration of relationship.

I am often disappointed by how long things take in life. I want the movie montage version, not the real-life version of these events.

We’ve come to believe the lie that rest is an event, not a lifestyle.

Choosing to believe what the Lord says about us instead of the voice of scarcity is immensely brave. And we are called to live bravely.

I believe that our responses to truth reveal a lot about the state of our hearts.

It’s our honor and privilege to learn to hear and respond to God’s voice as we grow and mature in him.

I wonder how our lives would change if we dared to lean in just a little closer and let the hand of the master restorer work.
