FAITH

Quote:
The trial of Abraham's faith was that he
simply and fully obeyed the call of God.

 

Abraham went out by faith not knowing where he was going. He dwelled in the land of promise like a foreign country and.......
Heb 11:10 For he (Abraham) looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.

 

This prompted me to think how sometimes we / I really want to know the big picture. God, where am I going what am I doing? And it is OK to ask. It is good to ask and to get insight, as we are encouraged to hear from God for direction.

 

But in this, I have to be at times reminded to trust, be faithful, be patient.

 

Even when Abraham got to the land of promise he dwelt there by faith.

 

I too am encouraged to dwell, live, walk by faith. To keep my eyes on Him. To live fully in my present position as I move onward in call and purpose. To be FAITHfilled obeying His direction and directive as I keep the perspective of eternity in my heart. And to remember in the process, to enter HIS rest.

 

He is LOVE.   Enter that REST

Jesus Christ - the author and finisher of our FAITH,
Who for the joy set before Him, endured the cross, despising the shame
and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Hebrews 12:2
