“When was the last time you did something for the first time?!..I think for each of us we get stuck at times in our lives being complacent..we get in our routines and we fail to understand or to even realize that there is this big huge world out there..you know?!..I mean we all have a gift of faith that has been measured and given to each of us..Romans 12:3/Romans 12:6/Ephesians 4:7…and we all are gifted with so many talents and abilities that honestly we don’t give ourselves that much credit for..but today my heart and my prayer is that we are being like Peter and we are stepping up out from our boats of life so to speak and were walking ever so graciously towards the Lord as He alone is bidding for us too..Matthew 14:22-33..that were not questioning our Father and His will or plan..but that we’re just choosing to listen to His voice as He alone is leading us..and that we are boldly and confidently exercising our gift of faith..that we’re stirring it up..2 Timothy 1:6-7…Amen..that were walking by faith and not sight..2 Corinthians 5:7..that we are doing as the word of God says, that we are calling them things that be not as though they were..Romans 4:17..Amen..that we are moving, living and walking always abiding by our faith..for you see faith is what move them mountains in our lives..faith is what moves us to get up and go regardless of any of it..for I know all to well in my life, that most of the time when it felt as if all was falling apart, that it was then that God was saying to do something that seemed a little far fetched..or even to me not a good time to be doing whatsoever it was that He was asking of me His child..and I’m sure that many of you as well can testify to that..but you see I also know that in doing so our faith grows and we get anchored so much more securely in the Lord and who He is..so for each of us I pray we move past the I think..or even the I hope mentality..but that we move and go forward in our lives with the whole thought of saying and meaning it deep down within our souls that we know..Amen..so whatever we’re doing, whatever we’re asked of the Lord to do..were just gonna rise up and go and do..no matter what..Amen..because as we rise and as we go..we’re going and we will always be going by our faith and our faith anchored and always secure in Jesus Christ our Lord..and who alone that He is..In Jesus’ name, I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
