God loves us above all else, sacrificing even his own son for our redemption. And what we are asked of in return is to love, to trust, and to obey. It shouldn’t be hard, but it’s one of the hardest things we’re called to do. First, in order to obey, we have to trust in God’s goodness and faithfulness. And when we see trouble ahead, that’s hard to do. It’s a leap of faith. The world screams at us n...ot to jump, tells us not to be foolish, entreats us to hold on tight to what we know, even if it’s not in our best interest. Yet in the midst of that is the calm, still voice of God, hearkening us to listen to him through the noise, assuring us that when we leap, he will give us wings to fly. Trust and obey, there's no other way!
