Faith Ride

Many of you know that I had an important client meeting on Monday.
This meeting gave me such a chill that my deficiency in knowledge and wisdom might put me in shame. I did not know anything about gene separation, electrophoresis, microfluidic, and whatever instruments people use in this field. This industry was a mystery to me.

I spent hours to study the market and helped myself to pronounce the medical terms and technical names correctly. Other than that, I asked my friends to pray for me. For I believe that they need to recognize my weaknesses and only the work of God can establish me.

Sunday night, God showed me this,

Leviticus 26
Reward for Obedience
3 " 'If you follow my decrees and are careful to obey my commands, 4 I will send you rain in its season, and the ground will yield its crops and the trees of the field their fruit. 5 Your threshing will continue until grape harvest and the grape harvest will continue until planting, and you will eat all the food you want and live in safety in your land.

6 " 'I will grant peace in the land, and you will lie down and no one will make you afraid. I will remove savage beasts from the land, and the sword will not pass through your country. 7 You will pursue your enemies, and they will fall by the sword before you. 8 Five of you will chase a hundred, and a hundred of you will chase ten thousand, and your enemies will fall by the sword before you.

9 " 'I will look on you with favor and make you fruitful and increase your numbers, and I will keep my covenant with you. 10 You will still be eating last year's harvest when you will have to move it out to make room for the new. 11 I will put my dwelling place [a] among you, and I will not abhor you. 12 I will walk among you and be your God, and you will be my people. 13 I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt so that you would no longer be slaves to the Egyptians; I broke the bars of your yoke and enabled you to walk with heads held high.

I could almost hear Him saying, “Remember that the work of your hands will be blessed and you will walk with your head held high.” Every single word stated in the Bible echoes hopes, promises, and grace to those whose hope is in the Lord.

Unspeakable peace entered my heart.

Monday morning, after a short struggle, I held my head up high and walked into the war room. According to my sales person, my clients were impressed. They urged the MC to write up a proposal to them ASAP. Even though it was a group effort, God did strengthen my feeble faith.

It seemed like I had the ride of faith with God yesterday.
It was thrilling and “scary.”
