By Faith

So many times as believers we can get wrapped in figuring out if the things we do are by chance or what God is asking us to do.  As a new lead pastor, I have been thinking about this a lot lately.  As I bring a message with a word that inspires someone, did I do it by chance or because God laid it on my heart.  As I try and get the people of Velocity Church to be faithful in their finances and missions, will they do it by chance or because they know it is what God is asking them to do.  Well, coming up in 8 days is a large outreach for Velocity Church called Party in the Park.  This is costing us time, energy and lots of money, but, I am certain that we are doing this outreach because God has set aside this time for us to do this, we are doing it "By Faith."  Even though we do no not know how many people will be impacted next Saturday or how many families may soon call Velocity Church home, we will do it because of our hope in Jesus Christ.

Hebrews 11:1 (KJV) Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen
