"And what shall I say further? For time would fail me to tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets, who by [the help of] faith subdued kingdoms, administered justice, obtained promised blessings, closed the mouths of lions" Hebrews 11:32-33 (AMP)
I'm reading through Hebrews 11, the faith "hall of fame" as some like to call it. I'm again reminded of how, as children of God, we are made to defy the odds. There are countless stories in the Bible of faith and impossible things happening. The writer of Hebrews mentions it in the verse above, there's not even time to tell all of the stories! I love that about God! He loves defying the odds and showing us that all we have to do is trust Him, He can do anything. I mean He created the universe, what should we expect?!
By faith, this life God has given us is meant to be LIVED. Don't be afraid. Trust God, and aim to do the impossible. Because that's what He does best.
I desperately want to live my life that way. I haven't in the past..I let fear and distractions get in my way far too often. I have a limited number of years on this earth, and I want to make the most of it. Hebrews has already been written, but I want to live a life worthy of the faith hall of fame.
