Amazing Faith

I have been reading a lot in Luke lately. I love the way you can read the same passage over and over again and have the spirit speak to you about different things each time! While I was reading, Luke 7:9 has stayed on my heart over the past several days. It says "When Jesus heard this, he was amazed. Turning to the crowd that was following him, he said, “I tell you, I haven’t seen faith like this in all Israel!”

Jesus was amazed at this roman soldiers faith. Our faith can amaze Jesus. Has my faith amazed Jesus?

There are some days when I am just on survival mode.. just making it through the day with everyone alive seems like the greatest accomplishment ever! But Jesus does not want us to just survive. I don't want to just survive! I desire to have the kind of faith that amazes my King!

We are so quick sometimes to shout "AMEN" to something but in the very next breath, we criticize someone or something that is so insignificant and we forget about what we just hear not just a second ago! It is easy to simply believe that Jesus is our savior! Though that is all we are called to do to become heirs to the throne. But when we live our life that way, that Jesus is just our "back up plan" we are missing out on so much more! The disciples didn't just say they believed Jesus rose from the dead, they acted like Jesus rose from the dead! There is power in our faith, the power to overcome anything in this world, yet we walk around defeated!

I do not want to remain defeated anymore. I do not want to remain unproductive anymore... I want my faith to amaze Jesus! What about you?

Here is brief insight into my ministry! We tend to forget through the trails in life that God has authority in everything, even what we deem to be the most impossible!
