Since moving back to Greensboro, my mantra has been "we have all we need when we need it". And now 10 months into this transition, I believe it even more so. If God has called us to a task, He either has given us what we need or will provide it when we need it.
This applies to every facet of life not just in the "spiritual" context. When progress is made and the company is in need of additional help, God has the right person in mind. When the church recognize a move of God, a need in the community, or is challenged to empower believers to exercise their giftings, no doubt we have what we need and the opportunities to go with it.
When we first moved to North Carolina, I shared with students a desire to see the Friday night program led by a full band. Now this may not seem like a big deal, but truly it was all faith considering most of the students weren't even engaged in the praise. It was challenging trying to lead students in songs about God only to get blank stairs. But in a matter of a few months, a drum set was donated, a brother from another ministry volunteered to teach our students drums and bass, and now we have the beginnings of a student led band. Though still in the works, you cannot deny this has got to be more than a coincidence. In fact, I believe it's providence.
2 Peter 1:3
"His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness."
Yes, our hope in Jesus emboldens us to take great leaps and even higher levels of risk. That's the life of a Christ-follower or at least it should be. But the point I want to make here is we can say "we have faith" all we want, but it is only when we ACT on it that we experience the heart pumping, adrenaline rush that can only be described with "Wow!"
Here's to all the "Wows" seeing God confirm that he has given you all you need when you need it.
