Faith is Taking the First Step

With God’s Word as our engine and the Holy Spirit as our thrust, we are wise people, we have places to be, and things to do!  We are anointed!
Our "mantel" is anointed to do a job!

Martin Luther King, Jr. said,  “Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.”


It is time to step out in faith and do your job for the Kingdom of God.
How?  You “position” your heart based on the “end” result desired, the “what” that is to come.  In other words, you do not dwell on each transaction, trial or tribulation along the way as you walk out your journey towards your destination.
Your attitude must go before you!  Choose to rejoice in all things.  Not because it feels good at the time, but because in faith, you know God will work it out for His good, and yours too!
Luke 10:20 (The Message Bible) 
All the same, the great triumph is not in your authority over evil, but in God's authority over you and presence with you. Not what you do for God but what God does for you—that's the agenda for rejoicing."
You make a difference.  Even if all you help is just one starfish, at least that one starfish was blessed by you!
