True Evangelical Faith
"True evangelical faith cannot lie dormant
It clothes the naked.
It feeds the hungry.
It comforts the sorrowful.
It shelters the destitute.
It serves those who harm it.
It binds up that which is wounded.
It has become all things to all people."
-Menno Simons
learning lately how faith is an active thing. it cannot grow unless it is practiced, stretched, and lived out...
comes down to the little questions, little duties, daily opportunities for faithfulness.
i hear the call to deeper faith all around and everyday.
in the plaintive wish of a stranger that God would come through for her and soon.
in the need for serving in the home duties.
in the loneliness of a friend.
in the willingness to hear the struggles of another.
Lord, please grow my faith and deepen my surrender of self.
