As the journey through our "Faith" series continues, we see one common theme in the scriptures. A seeking heart pursuing the righteousness of God. The verses that describe those with great faith who have gone before us bring to light that, although imperfect, the life of a true follower of God is one of obedience and dependence on Him.
Abraham obeyed God's call even though he did not know exactly where God would take him or what the outcome would be. You and I have the choice to follow God when He leads us in a direction. God calls ordinary people to do things we do not understand that will bring glory to Himself. Like Abraham, we oftentimes feel like we are foreigners here, like we do not belong. We were once bound by the things of this life: struggles, temptations, stress, worry, on and on and on. We can celebrate our freedom in Christ by fully depending on God in every aspect of our journey. Not only will this bring comfort to a weary heart, it will bring purpose and joy to a void in our life that only One can fill.
Hebrews 11:8-10, Genesis 12:1-9
