The Lord has been revealing to me my attitude toward not living to the full capacity of the measure of faith I have been apportioned. We get comfortable living a life with no risk and minimum faith effort. But if I expect daily testimonies I need to start swimming in the deep in end of faith.
I have been happy with earning enough in the coffee shop to pay the bills but this is not living a large life. There is no faith needed here, only trust that God will supply our needs. But he has called us as investors, to invest the "talent" to see it multiplied. It is in the multiplication that Father receives glory.
He wants us to model a blessed life, where they can actually see him doing the impossible, multiplying beyond what is natural. In this he receives the glory.
So in this past week we have seen things multiplying but he has also been pushing me, that he has given me a great capacity of faith than I have yet realized. Today, it looked like we were not going to make the minimum with one hour to go in the day. I was puzzled and started to take a personal inventory. Then three quick orders came in and brought us into the profit side of things. Yet I knew he had intended more today.
I testify to his goodness and make a mark here that I choose to operate in my full capacity. This is a marker in that growth.
