Let's talk about the word "faith." It's one of those words that has evolved over time. Today, we often use "faith" interchangeably with "belief," but the Bible paints a much richer picture. The book of Hebrews, particularly chapter 11, gives us a powerful glimpse into what real, Biblical faith looks like. We see it in Abel, who offered a sincere sacrifice to God, even though it cost him his life. Enoch walked with God for 365 years – talk about an unremarkable life of faithfulness! And Noah? He built that ark for a hundred years, enduring scorn and mockery because he feared God more than men. Then there's Abraham, who left everything he knew, risking it all to follow God's call, even though he had no idea where he was going. These examples highlight some core truths about saving faith. It's not about blind belief or hoping for the best. It's about a deep trust in God's character and promises, a trust that compels us to act, even when it's hard, even when it doesn't make sense. It's about seeking God's pleasure above all else, living as strangers and exiles in this world, our eyes fixed on the eternal city He is preparing for us. Remember, friends, true faith isn't passive. It's not just a head thing; it's a life thing. It's belief made visible. It's about taking God at His Word and allowing that Word to shape our thoughts, our actions, and ultimately, our very lives. So, as we embark on this new year, let's ask ourselves: What does it look like for us to live as people of faith in our homes, our workplaces, our communities? How can we demonstrate that our faith is more than just a word we use on Sundays? Let's be like those heroes of faith in Hebrews 11, living lives that boldly proclaim, "My God is worthy of it all!"
