Hebrews 11
Games of trust are always a good learning activity for a team. They are also a good activity for social observation. I recall one such trust game where a board is placed between two chairs and a blindfolded participant is helped to step up on the elevated board. The participant and the board are then lifted off the chairs. Without letting the blindfolded participant know, the board is then lowered almost to the floor where they are told to jump off. The blindfolded person always expresses fear of the height and not being able to see even though they are being reassured that they will be fine. In many ways, that is often the response that we have to God. We can’t see what the future holds and it is all too easy to stay put rather than take the step of faith and follow God’s calling. In Hebrews 11:22 we see that Joseph was commended for his faith. His life was filled with plenty of times when he could have chosen not to follow God, yet he saw that God took what was meant as evil and turned it to good to accomplish His purpose (Genesis 50:20). I would challenge you to take an inventory of your life. Could God be calling you to follow Him in faith, so He can use your situation for His purposes?
