Lent II: Faith

On Sunday night we talked about faith and faithfulness. The challenge was to take a leap of faith in your life, to do something for God that is not reasonable, but you are called to nonetheless. Maybe for you this can be as simple as offering up a prayer even though you have a hard time believing you are even praying to anybody. Or it can be bold action steps, like talking to a friend about your faith, or changing some bad habits from your life.

Think about the faith of Noah, Moses and Elijah. Noah believed God would send a massive flood, and acted on that faith. Moses believed God could bring water out of a rock, and also acted on that belief. Elijah believed God was the one true God, and so was not surprised to find a pitcher of water next to him in the middle of the wilderness. All three men believed, acted, and found water in the strangest of places. Think about that as you watch this video:
