I\u2019m always amazed at just how awesome the love of God is. <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

When we stop focusing on our past mistakes, failures and current fears and turn our eyes towards the Lord, we\u2019ll see just how amazing HE is. <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The Creator of the Universe, the ONE the wind and waves OBEY\u2026 will come to our rescue.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Choose to trust Him when the raging seas have you trembling.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Choose to trust Him when the day is gorgeous and your heart is at great peace.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Choose to be faithful. <\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Be like Abraham and simply Go<\/p>\n

Be like Joshua and fight for the Lord<\/p>\n

Be like Joseph and do what is right\u2026..regardless<\/p>\n

Be like Daniel, praying as always so that even when you face the den of hungry lions, you\u2019ll have peace that passes all understanding.<\/p>\n

Be like Esther and boldly take your needs before the One that loves and adores you.<\/p>\n

Be like Elijah and remember that as long as God is on your side, YOU are the majority.<\/p>\n

Be like Noah and be faithful\u2026no matter how long it takes.<\/p>\n

Be like Peter and just get out of the boat.<\/p>\n

Be like David realizing that when you are facing giants, that God has already equipped you to win.<\/p>\n

Be like Nathan and courageously deliver the word of God<\/p>\n

Be like Job and wait on the Lord<\/p>\n

Be like Barnabas and encourage others in Christ<\/p>\n

Be like John the Baptist and proclaim the name of the Lord<\/p>\n

Be like Paul and Silas and praise the Lord with singing no matter where you end up.<\/p>\n

Be as much like Jesus as possible so that one day you\u2019ll hear the Father say\u2026.. Well done, thou good and faithful servant.<\/p>\n

Keep your eyes on Heaven and Follow Him<\/p>\n
