Day 12: Living Life Faithfully

Jesus tells us in Matthew 17:20, that faith the size of a tiny mustard seed is powerful. So, let's plant those seeds and reap the harvest.

How in the world do we walk by faith?

In my search to answer this question, I’ve learned that walking by faith is living life with an eternal perspective. I must fix my eyes on Jesus, not on the earthly things. And this new perspective changes everything!

Instead of seeking revenge, I offer forgiveness. Instead of amassing a quantity of useless crap, I seek ways to share Jesus’s love with others. I try to see the heart of the person instead of his/her shallow exterior. Instead of gossiping, I reach out a helping hand in Jesus's name. Instead of worrying about my current situation, I trust it with God. Instead of fretting, I pray. Instead of letting my insecurities take over, I boldly set out on the adventure God has laid before me.

When I step out in faith, my steps will be blessed, my faith will be strengthened, and God will be glorified. What a more satisfying way to live! Amen!
