Forward or backwards? Up or down? Only one way is clear. Forward and up are where God is, because He is the light (John 8:12). He is creation, restoration, healing, hope, building, improvement — all things good and it never ends. Look up and trust and believe in the God who will make greatness happen. It’s called faith-walking. Faith-walking is just what it sounds like. It's walking forward even though we have no idea how God will do what He said He would do. It's doing all we can do in our own power, to get closer to our goals and dreams. Then letting God do the rest. It's walking up the staircase even when we can't see beyond the last step. It's making a big splash to improve someone else's life with the gifts (skills/talents) we've been given. The Lord wants us to be fruitful in order to make others fruitful and that goes on for the rest of our lives. Good fruit bearing good fruit bearing good fruit. All in the name of faith -- the substance/confidence of things hoped for, the evidence/proof of things we can't see (Hebrews 11:1).
