Friday faith in Action - 1st Edition

Each Friday, I want to stir people’s thoughts and hearts in contemplating what does it mean and what does it look like to see ‘faith in action.’ Through the vehicles of stories, messages, quotes, and real life examples. Hopefully, these blogs will: cause us to think, challenge us, and spur us on to seek out what faith in action looks like. And, just maybe, move us to put faith in action! Please interact and provide comments…being respectful of others and making this arena more of a kind, considerate place to dialogue.

For this first edition, let's consider two sources that provide a definition and description:

Webster's Dictionary defines faith as: belief and trust in and loyalty to God...belief in the traditional doctrines of a religion...firm belief in something for which there is no proof...complete trust...something that is believed especially with strong conviction especially : a system religious beliefs...

The author of Hebrews describes faith in this way: 11:1-3 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for. By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible. 

Here's a way we can interact over the next few days. Please consider answering these 2 questions: Where have you seen faith that has been put into action? And, what made this example stand out to you? 

Have a great weekend!
