Heroes 2

Yesterday I talked about heroes, another one of mine is Indiana Jones, I can tell your thinking I’m a deeply spiritual guy (who's lost the plot). My favourite is “The Holy Grail”. Near the end of the movie old Indy has to take a ‘STEP OF FAITH’, stepping out into a million foot drop with no bridge having the faith that when he steps out the bridge will appear. Wow! I can feel the intensity of it as I write and yet I’ve discovered that if your ever going to achieve anything in this life you have to take a few steps of faith yourself. We call it “taking risks” which by the way I think God really loves and has a lot of time for the person that takes risks.
Strange as it may seem God is not always one to play it safe, if you haven’t already found out, you will, God has a habit of taking you to the wire or as Exodus 3:1 tells us “Moses was in the back side of the desert”. Can’t get any further than that from civilized life and yet that just where God wanted him so He could work in his life. God forced Moses to take a risk that would change not just his life but the life of millions of people, and not just millions of people but a nation and a nation that would influence the world and not just the world but eternity because Jesus would be born through this nation. So next time you feel in the backside of a desert maybe a risk, a STEP OF FAITH would be appropriate.
