If success was guaranteed and failure was an impossibility, what might you attempt?  What goal might you pursue?  What dream would you chase? 

Now that’s faith!

Most of us set goals based on what we ‘think’ we can accomplish.  Unfortunately, these accomplishments rarely lead to lasting satisfaction and in a moment we start feeling restless and stuck!  And, on top of that, these are rarely the things that God calls us to.  Without faith, we can’t please God! (Hebrews 11:6)

It’s never too late to pursue a dream – to stretch out and pursue that thing that God laid on your heart when you were a child!  But the longer you delay, the more difficult it will be to get started! Start now.

Can I tell you a secret? I am often afraid.  I am regularly confronted with challenges that I feel ill-equipped to face. My superpower is showing up even when I can’t see my way clear.  But honestly, I can’t even really claim credit for that…it is a gift from God.

It is faith in God that encourages and sustains me. It is faith in the grace of God that stirs my capacity to imagine better days when things look grim.  It is faith that gives substance to my hope when obstacles seem like impasses.   

It is faith that calls us to remember that there is no failure in God who catches and can keep us from falling! 

Knowing this, what will you try today – If you knew that failure was not an option?  When God calls and sets His plans in our hearts, God guarantees the outcomes! Which means as we begin, we must keep the end in sight!  God’s got you!  God’s got us.

24 Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with great joy, 25 to the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen. 

Jude 24–25
