faith is the beginning of life.
heb 11:6 tells us that without faith we couldn’t please God if we wanted to. rom 14:23 guarantees that with out faith we die. thus, faith is the beginning of life.
for those who grew up in church, faith is an active, confident dependence on God’s character.
as heb. told us we can not hope to know or love God without faith and so, in order to worship (ie. fulfill our purpose in life) we must necessarily begin with faith.
practically lived out, faith will look like choosing and desiring the very best for others regardless of outcome or cost. it should also result in more grace flowing through my life and a more regular participation in the extraordinary.
