THROUGH THE BIBLE IN THREE YEARS
<><><><><>
A pastor boarded an airplane to take his first flight ever. As they were about to take off, the stewardess noticed the pastor praying. She approached him and said, "Pastor, I'm a little surprised. You are a man of faith, and you shouldn't be afraid of flying."
The pastor looked up at her and said, "Yes, Ma'am. I am a man of faith. And I read the Scriptures. In them, God says, 'LO, I am with you always.' He doesn't say anything about high!"

Heb 11:1
1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
(KJV)

Faith is not just hearing that the swing on the playground is fun; but it is getting on the swing and experiencing it for yourself.
Faith is not just hearing that the plane will carry you across the ocean; but it is getting on the plane and experiencing it for yourself.
The gift of faith is given by grace (Ephesians 2:8-9).
The gift of faith is substance that will change one's life (2Corinthians 5:17).
The gift of faith provides evidence by giving one the ability to tell others about Jesus (Acts 1:8).
Faith is "clinging power." It is the ability to cling to Jesus in every circumstance of life. And "..without faith, it is impossible to please Him.." (Hebrews 11:6).
REAL L.I.F.E. is Living In Faith Everyday.
Love the Lord today.
Increase your understanding of Him through prayer and Bible study.
Find strength to face every circumstance of life through association with your church family.
Experience joy as you give Evidence of His salvation in you.
Love ya,
Bruce

Grace calls us to experience Christ; faith sends us to give evidence to others.
