ready? ...jump!

"For in the gospel a righteousness is being revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: 'The righteous will live by faith.'"  Romans 1:17

The rustling above my head caught my ear.  I peered up to spot a squirrel in the tiptop of the tree scamper to the end of a twig and sail in the air to the branch tip in another tree.  What an incredible leap with no hesitation!

Often we are called to take such leaps in our life... leaps of faith.  Feats appearing dangerous, scary or impossible can cause us to cower.  We stop, analyze the circumstances through our human eyes and then turn away.

Is our Father calling you to take such a leap of faith and to follow Him down a different and uncertain path?  Unlike the squirrel, you can rest in the fact He will lead, guide and even catch you if you fall.  All He is asking is for you to believe Him.  May the grass around you rustle as you take a leap into faith with Him ... with no hesitations.


have a wonder-filled day!
