A Leap of Faith

The Wright brothers took a giant leap of faith as they succeeded doing something nobody else had been able to do. If we just repeat what others have done, no advancement occurs. So it’s OK to be different – to reach out into unexplored skills. Just doing things in a different way can lead to breakthroughs in relationships and vocational successes. That obstacle that seems impossible to overcome may just need a different approach. Faith in yourself can lead to accomplishing that next trial you face. When you are asked to do something completely out of the ordinary, just imagine that it’s a new test from God – because it probably is. He moved Abraham and his entire family and their possessions from what is now Iraq to present-day Israel when he was 75 and childless. Long before that He instructed Noah to build a 400-foot ark and never told him why until the last days – and he is everyone’s “father”! Trust and obey. Trust in God and yourself and obey the circumstances with prayer.
