I have a friend in Alaska. Some years ago he was a rising executive in a large, influential business. Then God spoke to him to quit his job and go to full-time Bible college. He did so, with no guarantees and no looking back.
After he finished Bible college, to the amazement of

                    Faith is like a trapeze. We walk by faith, not sight (2 Cor. 5:7). We learn three things: 1) It takes a leap of faith to let go of one bar and reach for the other one. 2) It can be scary letting go to your security and trusting. 3) You don’t have forever to decide to let go and grab the other bar.

                    Charles Swindoll says, “To walk by faith does not mean that we stop thinking. To trust God does not imply becoming slovenly or lazy or apathetic.
