Promises can mess with our faith, can’t they? There are times when the struggles, the hardships, the challenges of life come all at once and seem to last so long, we can wonder what God is up to and if he’s forgotten about the promises He made.

When it comes to thankfulness, sometimes we need to double back and return to a memory, a moment when we remember what God has done for us. A moment so rich and powerful that it stands out in our story and left such an impact that just recalling the goodness, the mercy, the generosity of God fuels the step of faith we need to take in the present.

Discipleship requires total dependence on the One who set us free… and this freedom is not to live as I see fit but to live according to the plans and the will of the Father. I am set free not just from something (sin, disease, captivity) but to become someone.

Imagine for a moment that you are a beggar and a crippled one at that. Can you imagine being carried everywhere you needed to go? 2000 plus years ago, there are no wheelchairs; no devices to get you from one place to another… you are totally dependent on someone else. It must be a humbling, embarrassing and helpless feeling.

Our relationship with God is not transactional… it’s relational. Yes, Jesus paid the price for our Salvation… He cancelled the debt and made this relationship with God possible. However, we cannot earn our salvation. Father’s love for us is unconditional.

In the context of our daily lives filled with our own stuff (Sad Tragic Fears and Failures) How do we put on Christ… assume the identity when life is interrupted by the cares and routines of life, when we must earn a living, take care of business and our margins are spread too thin?

It’s funny… strange, possibly hard to believe… but nowhere in the Bible does it ask for me to add my opinion or my definitions to what God says is true.

There is a very old Africa saying in the form of a question… a question with a deep intimate implication… the saying is… “Will you walk with me?” Will you walk with me? Not around the block, not across the street… will you enter my life, my world and journey with me? This is the call to follow Jesus, to enter the world of the Messiah and journey with Him, not at a distance but up close and persona...
