Taking the Next Step Towards A New Beginning
In the middle of broken places in our lives, God will always nudge us to take a leap of faith. In other words, it will involve risk. He wants to take us to a better place but in order for that to happen, we have to put our trust in Him and actually do what He tells us to do.
Somehow our mind gets in the way by trying to figure out every step of the process. There’s something in our human nature that wants to physically see the desired outcome before we take the first step and that's not how faith works.
Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.
~ Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
In the Bible, there’s a story where the disciples of Jesus were in a boat that was caught right in the middle of a storm. They looked up and saw Jesus walking on the water and were afraid because they thought it was a ghost. As the story goes on, Jesus commands Peter to get out of the boat and walk to Him on the water. It was a huge step of faith but Peter actually did it.
When you are taking a step towards a better circumstance, God will also require you to stretch your faith and believe Him for the impossible.
