I love to read of the lives of great people of faith throughout history, because in a way their story is mine.
It is through the conviction and passion for our Lord seen in the lives of his saints that the message has been passed through twenty centuries. And the love and life that I live for Him will affect my children and theirs and those around me who see this great love of the Gospel. We are all connected through our Maker, we find our center in Him.
As Abraham's walk of faith seemed small in the beginning but spread to thousands of people in hundreds of generations, so our simple walks of faith now will inspire untold numbers for the glory of the Lord.
Be encouraged today.
Plant small seeds.
Water and tend them with intentional care.
Wait.
Then see the amazing bounty your faithfulness to Him will produce.
He will bring the harvest!
The reward of knowing and serving Him is never lost!
(Come back tomorrow as we learn of Susannah Wesley and the mission of love she planted in the souls of her children.)
