Without Faith It's Impossible To Please God - Living our lives in the "safe zone" is what comes naturally to us, but God requires faithful obedience in each of our lives. Just as Abraham was courageous enough to follow God not knowing where God was leading or what was going to be there, we must be faithful to follow God in the uncertain areas of our lives and as a country.

Launching Into The Deep - What Jesus asks of us doesn't always make sense, especially if it calls us out of our comfort zone, but we're called to follow no matter what. Our faith in Christ calls us to let go of what we know and trust what we haven't seen yet. We are called to wade into the deep, and trust God.

Fear Not - Fear is mentioned in the Bible over 300 times. God knew. that we as humans struggle with fear and the unknown, and He has assured us that He will be with us always. As we enter the reopening of our nation, we are to move forward with faith. Not ignoring fear, but trusting God for wisdom and guidance.

The Gift of Hope - Hope is what changes people, encouragement is the fuel that causes hope to continue. One of the greatest faith builders is being able to provide encouragement for others to remain hopeful and continue to persevere. Will you share the hope and encouragement we have in Christ with someone who needs it this week?

The Christian Community - As Christians, we can handle so much more when we work together for each others benefit. A cord of three strands is not easily broken, and when we work together as brothers and sisters in Christ we can overcome anything this world has in store for us! Let us be the body of Christ and support one another.

National Day of Prayer - Millions of Christians across America unite today in prayer to God for the future of our nation. Just like the nation of Israel, our country has gone through phases of wandering from and coming back to God. This year we are praying for an awakening and a spirit of repentance for our nation on God to seek restoration.

Putting Our World Together Again - As our country and communities come out of the troubled waters of this time, we feel a bit broken and battered. As we seek to rebuild our lives and recover from the brokenness we've experienced, we must believe in God's power to redeem the experiences of our lives.

Maintaining A Positive Attitude - Our attitude should reflect the attitude of Christ, and Christ's attitude, as we see in the Bible, was positive and he was someone others wanted to be around. We are able to maintain a positive attitude in times like this because we know God is in control. Will you choose to have a positive attitude as we move towards the end of this season of life?
