Wild FaithWhat Hope Feels, Looks, Sounds, Smells, and Tastes LikeHope. It’s something most of us would probably say we could use a little more of. But what is it really? Romans 15:13 says, “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” Two things immediately catch my attention here: 1) God is the God of hope— he is the source of hope and the one who gives hope 2) We can overflow and abound in hope not through our own making, but by the power of the Holy Spirit.
2022-01-1416 minWild FaithFaith and Mental ToughnessWhen someone says, “trust me” we can only truly give them our trust if we have history or an experience with them that would indicate they are a person of their word and are not out to get us. To trust is to have reliance on and confidence in a person. Trust is a major theme in the Bible. Often times, when the NIV uses the word “faith”, the CJB translates that word as “trust”. Faith and trust are very much similar, but also kind of different. Faith can seem a bit elusive, while trust is a pretty concrete, actionable c...
2022-01-0713 minWild FaithLearning to Hope AgainBecoming more dependent on God is not a weakness, it is actually a superpower. Growing in reliance on Him is not a sign of deficiency or inadequacy, it is a sign of faith. It is this dependency that causes seas to part, walls to fall, chains to break, eyes to see, the dead to be raised, and all things to be made possible. It is this reliance that produces true well-being, fullness of life, abundant joy, and hope unshakeable. When we find ourselves at the point of being past hope, true north is choosing to come back to God’s...
