Would you be discouraged if I tell you that the one great break you wish for has already happened to you? It isn't that you may have missed it; but it is possible you have forgotten the treasure you possess.
I speak of faith. Faith has taken a bad rap. First it got tossed into the five-step salad which left most with eyes focused on the big baptism conclusion. Because of that formula Faith was not just a part of but became the topic of debate against.....highlighting baptism.
Faith is the wrecking ball for the Christian community. It can say to a mountain, Go squat in the water, Jesus declares....and it will go. Faith can look at anything dead and believe it will live. It can notice something lacking and believe fulfillment will arise in that very place....Romans 4:17.
It is faith---not confession of sin nor baking of a pie for a needy neighbor---which takes the slightest or the largest bit of factual information and transforms (wrecks) its report. Remember the Spy-Report? It came down with overwhelming majority vote. Yet, Faith upset the democratic process.
Faith is THE major breakthrough for every heart. We can wipe away the tears and dismiss all fears. Because of Faith we can see hope when others see trouble. We can see probability when others see only problembility.
Faith....is a breakthrough...a major breakthrough....and you already have it.
Awaken to the wonder of yourself!

In fact Jesus says Faith is The work of God
"The work of God is this: to believe in the one He sent."
John 6:29
