This Scripture talks about 'a step of faith'. It says Abraham obeyed God when he was called to live in a foreign land, in tents with his son and grandson. Abraham didn't question God, he took 'a step of faith' and did what God commanded. He gave up a lot to go somewhere he didn't know or even why. He just knew that God had a better plan.
We often question ourselves when we have decisions to make and ask the -should or shouldn't we- type of questions. Some decisions require a step of faith, just in the matter of living life at home and at work. Big faith steps sometimes.- new jobs, new moves, new relationships.
God also wants us to have 'a step of faith' in the way He leads us. Faith means 'belief in, devotion to, or trust in somebody or something, especially without logical proof.' (Entourage dictionary) Faith in God means stepping into the unknown when He calls us into something. God has goals for us and He knows the outcomes. All we need to do is believe in Him and follow Him, even when we are scared of the unknown. And that is not an easy task.
I want to know where God is taking me and why. I question Him with the whys and I struggle with letting God do His thing. I need to work on 'a step of faith' every day and keep reminding myself that God has a better plan for me and even if I don't know where I'm going or why, He is in charge of where He is taking me. I need to go in belief, in faith.
