WELCOME HEART: Living a Legacy Life
Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
If we want a deeper faith, we can ask God for it. He knows our hearts anyway, so we may as well be honest.
When we ask God for more faith, He will do one of three things:
Perhaps you’ve heard this before but it’s a good reminder:
Everything I need to know about life, I learned from Noah's Ark:
One : Don't miss the boat.
Two : Plan ahead. It wasn't raining when Noah built the Ark.
Three : Stay fit. When you're 600 years old, someone may ask you to do something really big.
My favorite is the last one: “Stay fit. When you’re 600 years old, someone may ask you to do something really big.”
Your life’s not over because you’re 40 or 50 or 60 or 600. Just ask Noah. So we better stay fit. Spiritually and every way.
Of course, it wouldn’t matter if Noah were fit at 600 if he had no intention of obeying God, would it? Part of our spiritual fitness is a heart of obedience.
By faith, I invited my neighbor for coffee, dinner, Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve Soup Potluck, dinner, zoom Bible Study and wine night. Two and a half years later, she said, "Is it too late to join Bible Study?" (Never) Four months later she gave her life to Jesus.
On one sunny but chilly Sunday in February, she got baptized in a very cold water tub.
Point #1:
Obedience could save a life. Jesus obeyed and went to the cross.
Point #2:
Never give up.
