    Word of God vs current reality

    Space of tension in the between

    Qvh

    Existing in faith

    Be bold to pray in faith

    Faith is being certain in the unknown

    Living in the space of tension

    Aka space of faith

    So used to dropping the other end of the rope

    Everyone has dropped a bit of faith in truth

    Everyone has dropped it for someone else

    Holding firm in two realities

    Stability … Abram GEN 15:6 is stable in faith in God

    Gen 12 to 15 is 14 years

    25 years of stable faith before the promise was fulfilled to have a child

    Abram waited 16 years after Ishmael for Isaac

    Sarai offered Abram the apple of control

    Abram chose to control the situation

    God does not shame or abandon Abram

    Still blesses Ishmael

    Still fulfills God’s original promise for Isaac

    Not perfect endurance

    Not perfection

    Return to trust

    Allow God to restore my dropping of the rope

    God give me strength to endure the tension I tried to get out of

    This is biblical faith

    Control is trying to resolve tension on your own

    Faith is allowing tension to resolve in trusting God

    When waiting feels unbearable

    We give up faith for control

    Without faith, it is impossible to please God

    Help me with my unbelief

    From my perspective.
    Training at the Gym is physical (fleshly) preparation for physical work like a fire fighter

    Training at school is mental preparation for mental decision making like a pharmacist

    Training at church is spiritual preparation for heart work for compassionate relationships like being a disciple of Jesus.

    The first two are necessary to sustain the worldly body. However, seek first the kingdom and His righteousness of the third and all these things will be added to you.

    Question remains: where is one area you can trade your valuable commodities (your time & energy) from worldly work to spiritual work?

    Reference:

    Matthew 6:33 KJV
    [33] But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

    Similar to trading up

    How can I invite God into my daily rhythm in all I do?
