Live By Faith

I finished re-watching this sermon by John Piper.  At this point in our journey, as one hurdle after another comes before us, I think I needed to be reminded that we are doing this in faith.

It's not about us.  It doesn't matter what the outcome is.  We need to keep moving forward in faith that this is what God called us to do.

Speaking of "being called", I loved this definition of a calling by Robert Speer: 

"The knowledge of a need and the ability to meet that need - this constitues a 'calling.'"

In case you don't know of the need...
