Faith and Risk

Every time you step out in faith, it is a risk.

Being faithful to Jesus may look like being a failure to the world.

He may ask you to leave what you know, sacrifice whatever is needed, and embrace a temporary difficulty in hope of a future opportunity.

Hebrews 11:8 says that, “By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going.” (NIV)

My friend, whatever God is asking you to do, you can trust Him. Know that even though the risk of faith seems great, a life lived in faith in the Son of God means that any sacrifice He is asking you to make, He has already made it. He has already walked it. He has already paid for it.

The prayer I am whispering over you today is, “Jesus, take care of my friends as they step out in faith. Thank you that they are trusting you as they face risk. Reward them with courage and vision and do what only You can do – the impossible in them and through them. In Your Name, Amen.”
