“Faith is not about finding meaning in the world, there may be no such thing -- faith is the belief in our capacity to create meaningful lives.” Terry Tempest Williams

I believe faith starts with God, not just with us. When I look at the condition of the world, all the fighting and accusing and tearing apart of our nation... I could not go through each day without giving it ALL to God. To live faith based we are living breathing examples of God in our words and actions.  During our lives here in this world, there are times God is pushing us past our safety zones and through his wisdom we grow from adversity and actually grow our faith. 

Learning to walk in faith is one of the hardest journeys to make, to give up the materialistic things of this world, declutter our lives and leave behind the worries.  We move forward with trust and faith that the Lord will provide for us while we are serving others, living this faith with our lives and inspiring others to find His grace and a safe place with Him. 

Most of us live a "good life". Many are missing some of the beautiful things in life; we come up empty and spiritually needing. Until God becomes the center of your life there is no way to fully embrace true love, sacrifice or walking or leaping in faith. 


“For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit, because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and receives human approval. Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification. Romans 14:17-19
