Faith

When one acts in faith, she leaps, and then God gives her wings. Faith the size of a mustard seed can sprout and grow into a kingdom. When I try and wrap my mind around this idea of faith, I often encounter faith's greatest obstacle: fear. Debilitating, stinky, rotten fear. Fear and faith cannot coexist and I'm reminded of this every time I try to do things on my own. My feet start moving, but soon get stuck in the mud of fear. God wants me to spread my wings and soar! His Spirit in me provides everything I need. His perfect love casts out all doubt and fear.
Faith! We can move the mountains! We can do all things through Christ!
