PUSH THE "FAITH" BUTTON

PUSH THE "FAITH" BUTTON

Can you imagine what life would look like over the next 30 days if you only pushed the faith button?  With every encounter, opportunity, or challenge, you step forward in faith.  You just flat out decide not to push the fear button.  

Too many of us are not even aware that we allow fear to dominate our daily decision making.   It only takes one or two fear based decisions each day to throw off our compass.  Next thing we know, we are sailing off course, not hitting goals, and scratching our head wondering how it all happened.

What if it getting things done were as simple as pressing a button?  For instance, think of a task right now that you have been avoiding.  Whatever it is, imagine yourself releasing the big red fear button.  Great, now lean forward and press the big green faith button.  Face your task or goal!  Smile at it and go to work on it!   In fact, you are no longer afraid of it because you just pushed the “faith” button!

Are you still reading this?  I get it…sometimes taking the leap of faith is scary!  Look at Peter in the Bible.  He stepped out of the boat and began to walk on water only to realize, “wow, this is scary,” and the sinking began.  Even if you are being asked to walk on water, try pushing the faith button and see what happens.

Next Steps

  1. Does your current thinking empower you?  
  2. How might your life be different if you only pushed the faith button?
  3. Which of your goals needs a giant faith button?
