"Without faith it
is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that
he exists and that he rewards those who seek him." (Hebrews 11: 6)
There will always be
people who will tell you that you will fail, you will never be anything in
life. I had a teacher who wrote in my diary: "This boy will never amount
to anything, because everything he does is sit in class all day looking out the
window, daydreaming and drawing cartoons." It was true that I was doing
these things? Of course not. But I could not motivate myself by reading what
the teacher wrote on my agenda.
And that I also heard
throughout my ministry. I was 20 when we started what is today our congregation
and people said, "You can not start a church. You're too young. That will
never work. You are not qualified." Later, when we started our ministry of
the Crusades, people said, ".. Oh, this will not work Crusades are gone No
one wants to go to spiritual crusades."
In everything we did, we
always had opposition and pessimistic people. At this point in life, I'm used
to it and have even hope for it. More than that, if I do not ask myself opposed
what is wrong? Where are the critics? Where are the people to tell us what we
can not do it?
I am not advocating the
bravado, nor am I saying that we should be presumptuous. But I am saying that
as DeCristo followers, we must take some actions based on faith and see what
God will do. I'd rather try and fail than never try at all.
Some people are always
critical and will play a bucket of cold water at all what others try to do. And
unfortunately, things rarely happen to these people. But for those who are
willing to take risks, God can do amazing things.
- What risk He is asking
you to take today?
