Faith

Faith is the catalyst to do something remarkable. The spark that ignites your ability to move beyond disbelief, doubt and even logic.

Hebrews 11:1 "Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen, it gives us assurance about things we cannot see."

Sometimes we appear to be crazy, irrational, and downright dumb to the world, but in our faith (read craziness) we move forward into realms deemed impossible by anyone who is paralyzed by logical movement.

It doesn't make sense for me to think that I have a voice worth hearing, a message worth sharing or a goal worth achieving; but I do press forward with blind faith, a confidence that precedes fear, and perseverance that overcomes any obstacle.

What are you hearing from the spirit of God that sounds crazy? Just ponder that for a moment.

What is the greatness that God has put in you to achieve things outside of your ability? What do you have in your hand that you can work until your fingers are bloody, to the ends of your ability, when only God can carry you further? Have you stepped from beyond your means into the realm of the unknown - the point your ability ends and greatness takes over? Sometimes it takes that great measure of faith to exhaust your resources, because that is when we "allow" God to move in our life.

I believe in my own life that God waits patiently for me to stop messing around and truly come to the end of myself, for Him to go the rest of the distance (or in some cases give me the ability to work in a miracle when I had no other means).

Crazy faith; it's not supposed to make sense - I'm ready to step from the realm of possible, into the realm of impossible.
