We’d all like to live in a world where God lets us do big things with minimal risk, but unfortunately, that’s not the way it works. Faith is not asking God to do something that we can do ourselves. Faith is not telling God what direction your life is going and then requiring him to follow.
Faith involves risk. You have to risk failure and disappointment along the way. There is no sure thing when human beings are involved, we can only try our best to live the way that God identifies as the “right” way. We can’t back down from the unknown because a life without risk is not really life at all.
Luke 5:11
