1As believers in God we're constantly learning how to surrender 2ourselves to the Lord and trust in Him. This is all a part of our venture of 3faith. Today, Pastor Mark continues discussing what it means to be on a 4continual faith venture. He reminds us that in our to grow our faith, it 5must be tested, it must be exercised. We need to be willing to step out 6and trust that God knows what's best for our lives. Christian, this doesn't 7have to be scary! Don't you know that God is in control!? We can't allow 8fear to keep us from walking in obedience. Remember when Jesus told 9His disciples to “take courage”...”don't be afraid”? That same message is for us today.
