"The
just shall live by faith . . ." and this is ONE snapshot of what that
looks like in the 21st Century.
What
ought not to surprise you is that this is what it looked like when Billy Graham
was filling football stadiums during his evangelistic crusades.
This
is what it looked like when John and Charles Wesley were used by God to start
The Great Awakening.
Believe
it or not, this is what it looked like when Saul of Tarsus was struck down on
the road to Damascus, transformed into the Apostle Paul, and became the
greatest missionary the world has ever seen.
While
the names and faces have changed, the times and circumstances have radically
altered as the world turned, the principles remain the same, and are captured
in one verse of Scripture:
"He
has shown you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but
to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?" Micah 6:8
(NKJV)
So
many people stop short of that final step.
In her autobiographical work, WALK IT OUT, author Tricia Goyer shows us
what that final step looks like. As
Tricia explains, "I've learned that God's good plans are not always easy,
or neat, but when we step out in obedience we never walk alone."
