We’ve Come This Far by Faith
For we walk by faith, not by sight.
– 2 Corinthians 5:7
Today marks 75 days of growth, prayer, and a deepening of our Faith. It wasn’t always been easy, but by God’s grace, we persevered, and the 75th day is here.
Each day, we’ve leaned on the Lords strength, trusted His promises, and grown in His Word.
When we began, we all had doubts of some sort about this challenge; but we stepped out on Faith, focused on Jesus, and stayed consistent, even during the challenging times.
God’s Word has guided us, His Holy Spirit has strengthened us, and His LOVE has carried us through.
Each day had its own set of obstacles, but no matter the challenges we found a way!
We persevered…
Some days the toughest battles were fought between our ears, bringing all thoughts captive to the obedience of Christ; and growing more sensitive to the voice of the Lord.
By no means were we perfect, but we made progress each, and every step of the way.
Even when the road got tough, we trusted God’s grace, and kept moving forward step by step, and that pleased God because we did it by Faith!
We Grew in Faith…
Over these 75 days, our faith has been stretched, and strengthened more than we even realize…
Even on the days we didn’t see instant results, we stood on our Faith, and trusted that God was working in us, and through us even when we couldn’t see it.
Consistency Is Now a Lifestyle…
Our Faith has gone from a small spark to a continuous flame. The habits we’ve built will carry us forward, not just for the next 75 days but for the rest of our lives.
From 75 Days to 365 Days…
The journey doesn’t stop here!!!
The rest of this year will offer new opportunities to deepen our faith, and use it to believe for something that God has placed in our heart.
Thank You for Walking Together…
Thank you for being part of this 75-day journey. Let’s continue to walk by faith, carrying the lessons we’ve learned during this challenge into the year ahead.
Prayer
Heavenly Father,
Thank You for guiding us through these 75 days in Faith, even on the days we didn’t feel like participating You still showed up and helped us to stay the course!
Father God, we recognize it’s only by Your grace that we’ve persevered this far. And we ask that You would please help us to continue walking in (Faith), trusting You every step of the way.
Please help us to remember the intricate details throughout this journey, and may every seed that was planted through prayer, and devotional yield an abundant harvest.
Thank you for the laughter…
Thank you for the tears…
And because of You Lord our Faith is stronger, and we are closer to You in our daily lives.
Help us to continue loving and forgiving one another, and help us continue to support each other through the ups and downs of life.
