At
the beginning of each year we map out our blog themes to make it easier to
write them without having to figure out each week what we’re going to do.
But
what does one write on faith? How we all need to have it, hold on to it and
give it opportunity to grow?
Faith
is this fact:
Now faith is the conviction
concerning those things that are in hope, as if it were these things in action,
and the revelation of those things that are unseen - Hebrews 11:1
It
just is.
You
either have it or you don’t. You can’t have a little or much faith, you just do
– or don’t.
We
make faith this big ethereal thing that is ‘out there’.
It’s
simply relaxing in the assurance that our daddy God cares enough about us and
holds us in His hands.
‘I
gave in and admitted that God was God’ - C.S. Lewis
Afri-Lift
is a Christian faith based organisation here in Nairobi. That means that we
just have to trust God with provision for all that we do. The money doesn’t
come down from Heaven in a bag but through generous people who believe in what
we’re doing here, people whose hearts are moved into action. It comes in
through spending lots of hours applying for grants, talking to people, sharing
on social networks and taking visitors to our projects.
Faith
without works is dead – James 2:14
Here
at Afri-Lift we’re always stepping out in faith. There will never be enough
people or financial resources to meet the vision. Yet, we do not simply sit
down and do nothing. We advance, we make a stand and take ground.
Faith
is a verb.
The
team at Afri-Lift are people of faith who take pleasure in working for the
bigger vision (check it out on our website).
What
steps of faith are you taking today?
