+ A Bible Verse +
“I Will Go Before You And Make
The Crooked Places Straight.”
-Isaiah 45:2
Of All The Misunderstandings About Faith,
There Is One Point That Must Be Reviewed
Again: Faith Is Not A Wild Plunge Into
Dangerous Ventures.
Faith Faces Risks With The Wide – Awake
Awareness That Success Is Uncertain.
Nevertheless, Faith Moves Ahead, Confident
That We Can Arrive If We Keep On Keeping
On.
Faith Believes That We Can Maneuver Our
Way Around The Obstacles And Dangers.
We May Be Able To Remove The Obstacle
And We May Not Be Able To Tunnel
Through The Mountain That Lies Before Us,
But No Matter How Steep The Path May Be –
It CAN still Be Conquered If We Work Our
Way Around The Obstacle.
Remember:
A Mountain Road Is Seldom A Straight Path.
The Road Will Twist, Turn, Curve, And Wind.
Not Infrequently The Road Detours For Miles
Before A “Switch – Back” Can Be Executed,
And We Can Start Moving In Our Destination
Once More.
The Good News Is That Eventually – After
Compromising, Adjusting, Manipulating, And
Maneuvering – We Do Succeed!
The Crooked Place Becomes Straight.
The Mountaintop Is Reached, And The
Village With Its Straight Streets Lies
Below.
Faith Calls Us To Travel Ahead In
Uncharted Territory, Exposing Ourselves
To Risk.
But Faith Manages The Risks Responsibly
Through Wise And Cautious Maneuvering.
Affirmation:
I Shall Keep Spiraling My Way Upward.
I Shall Not Fail. My Strong Spirit Of
Determination Is Itself A Victory Over
Discouragement!
I Am A Success At This Level - Anyway!
My Willingness To Exercise Patience Is A
Victory Over Reckless Impulsiveness.
Here, Too, I Am Experiencing A Success.
Thank You, Lord!
