Bold Faith

When Jeremy used to teach campus bible study, every week my prayer request was for Bold Christianity. Every week, in addition to my other prayer requests, I stressed the importance of being Bold in our Christian walks, exercising our faith and being a solider for God. Most recently however, as we are preparing to move to NC, I haven’t been as bold in my walk, as I once professed. And even as of yesterday, my faith has been unwavering as I can’t see what God is going to do in our family, as we take this huge step.

We move in 8 weeks and I do not have a job yet. I have been feeling so unsure as to what I am supposed to do for income—to feed our family, to pay for insurance.. you know, the things we need to live. See, this move puts me in an uncomfortable position..we’re moving away from family, friends, confidence in who we are.. to a city, where we only know a few people, which makes me uncomfortable.

My discomfort has caused me to be faithless and honestly, I was hesitant to go because I was being selfish. I can’t help but wonder if the reason why God has not provided me with a clear vision as to what I will be doing August 2, is because I’m an infant in my faith walk. Well, I lack faith all together (in this regard). God can’t and won’t bless any of us, if we don’t boldly declare our faith and the Blood of Jesus over our circumstances, job, finances, health, etc.

So today, I boldly declare productivity in this move, me with a clear vision for our family and true, bold faith as we transition from one place to another. Please lift us up; we’re on a countdown to move to the Tar Heel State!

Praying for Bold Faith,
