"Life is a risk.... You can't steal second with your foot on first....Go for it!!!"
I have had this picture in every place I have lived since she gave it to me.... It is not on display at my house now, but it is somewhere I see it everyday.... It is in the bathroom closet where I put my dirty clothes..... Everyday when I look at it...especially now that I am really leaving first base to go to second with my big move of faith to the Philippines, I sense God's presence with me..... It is amazing how this little picture has ministered to me over the years....
At the bottom of the picture it has this scripture....
At the bottom of the picture it has this scripture....
"Do all that you have in mind. Go ahead; I am with you heart and soul..."
1 Samuel 14:7
1 Samuel 14:7
I am reminded that whatever I am doing for the Lord's sake that He is with me... I have really been reminded of that lately.....
I wanted to share that with you today because I feel like LOTS of Christians have dreams, visions, and callings on their life that they want to do but feel like they can't...... GOD EQUIPS THOSE HE HAS CALLED.... and guess what..... the preacher is not the only called.....
I want to encourage you today to step out in faith and.........
Whatever it is in your heart that God has placed a desire to do and is in accordance with his Word...DO IT!!!!.... Seek out ways to Follow His Call in your own life..... Trust Him!!!
Remember... God did not part the Jordan until the people trusted him and stepped into the water.....

I want to encourage you today to step out in faith and.........
- start a ministry to the elderly at a local nursing home...
- lead a bible study for those who have been divorced, abused, or drug pushers at church...
- smile and speak to that troubled person at Wal-mart....
- take that class or course that will help you be a better disciple....
- join an existing ministry at church where you feel you can serve....
- sign up to help at VBS even though you think you don't know what to do.....
- talk to that lost co-worker about Jesus...
- plan an evangelistic block party in the middle of your neighborhood....invite everybody..give them food and let God do the rest!!!!!
