Gamble on faith..

As I think through my fear of a decision I have been faced with making I realize that the biggest thing in my way is money. Don't we all say this? We never have enough even at all levels. The more we have the more we spend. If only there was a money tree. I find myself always saying but then I realize that this very thing is stopping me from truly having faith.. True faith in God. I don't mean this to say that we are to be unwise with the use of our money as we should be thankful and careful with our spending and not be greedy but that we also can not put so much focus on it. So I am reminded of this verse.

Luke 16:13 (NIV) "No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.

This is hard for me but I am embracing my faith in the lord with our finances. Gambling a bit on faith if you will. Praying that if you too are in a place were you find money being the one thing that is stopping you from really moving forward to a place you feel burning in your heart that you too may take the gamble.

Rolling the dice and giving it all up to HIM...
