Leap of Faith | Short Sermon Series

Life was meant to be walked hand in hand with God. As our Maker, the one who designed us for a specific purpose only we could fulfil, God is the only one who knows what is truly best for us, and what paths we should step on. If we want to live a life fulfilling the purposes we were created for, we need to learn to trust the gentle direction of our Maker.

 

Human wisdom will only take you so far, for we aren't able to see into the future. But God can! And in His infinite wisdom, He might lead us on paths that defy human wisdom for being the "best" path.

 

We see the example of Abraham, who was asked by God to leave his homeland to go to an unspecified land that God would show him (Gen 12:1). Abraham had no way of truly telling what his future would look like, or if God would really fulfil His promise of making him into a great nation. Yet, Abraham chose to trust God's wisdom, and took a leap of faith to obey God's call.

And sure enough, God blessed Abraham abundantly and his descendants did indeed outnumber the stars in the sky.

What is God calling you to step out in faith to do today? It may seem scary, for you can't see the future and how it'll all turn out. But God has given you millennia of examples to see His character, and to know that He keeps His promises. Though we may be faithless, God is incredibly faithful - may His faith and commitment to you give you the faith to step out into the plans and purposes He has for your life.

May you be inspired by @dokidokinatnat's designs to take the leap of faith today! Now available for order.
