Living by faith is like being a trapeze artist without a safety net. Like the trapeze artist, you have to let go of the trapeze you’re on before you can grasp the next one. Given that definition, let me ask you a couple of questions: Are you walking in faith or living in fear? Are you playing it safe, or are you risking everything in obedience to Jesus Christ?
“Then Jesus said to him, ‘Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.’ At once the man was cured; he picked up his mat and walked.”
— John 5:8–9 (NIV)
Lord Jesus, give me the courage to step out in obedient faith even when You ask me to go where I’ve never gone and do things I’ve never done. In Your holy name I pray, amen.
