IN ALL ERNESTNESS

Some have said there is a fine line between faith and foolishness…

What do you think?

• It would be foolish to believe a 99 yr old woman could conceive and give birth but Sarah did.
• It would be foolish to believe a slave could rise to 2nd in command and save a nation but Joseph did.
• It would be foolish to believe a child could defeat a well trained warrior giant but David did.
• It would be foolish to believe 3 men could be thrown into a furnace and walk away unharmed but “Rack”, “Shack”, and “Benny” did.
• It would be foolish to believe that a group of slaves could escape Egypt and cross a sea on dry land but the Isrealites led by Moses did.
• It would be foolish to think a virgin could give birth but Mary did.
• It would be foolish to think a man could raise the dead but Jesus did (on numerous occasions…including himself).

Shall I go on?

Jeremiah 32:17, “Nothing is too difficult for you (God)”

Mathew 19:26, “with God all things are possible”

Luke 1:37, “For nothing is impossible with God”

Ephesians 3:20, “to Him who is able to do exceedingly, abundantly above all we ask or think”

Maybe I am foolish; but for me, I would rather be foolish for believing too much than not enough!

My God is a big god and I choose to trust Him for big things!

True that. Thanks for the reminder that we do serve a great big god.
