Faith Acceleration
Posted by admin | Tags: Intentional for 10Share with us how God has been using the InTENtional for 10 focus to accelerate your faith:
“During this 10-week period, I have experienced a tremendous amount of spiritual growth. I honestly feel closer to the Lord than I ever have at any time in my 40 years on this Earth. My children and I are taking to heart each of the 10 elements. The blessings and inner peace that we have enjoyed have been nothing short of amazing. We are closer as a family than we have ever been. During this 10 for 10 period, I have felt the Lord call me to fulfill my His Heart, Our Dream commitment made in 2006. Mind you that when this commitment was made, I was in a double income situation. Since that time, I am in a single income situation, and I have taken a 12% pay cut. Honestly, I had rationalized to myself that I could not fulfill the remaining commitment and that given my circumstances, it was OK. But, God had other plans. I went from fulfilling half of the remaining balance to fulfilling all of the remaining balance. I felt that God was using this period in my life to sharpen my faith and my belief. I knew what he wanted me to do. I am happy to say I followed His direction.”
“I have always been a volunteer, but I’d backed off some when we moved to Greenville. Slowly, I cautiously began to enter the volunteer field again. Then, InTENtional for 10 came around. I decided to put myself “out there.” I had doubts about a new volunteer opportunity and my ability to do it. I accepted the challenge in faith, and the result has been amazing! God has given me confidence, and even though it takes a lot of my time, it seems that I am able to get even more done. Through His love, great things can be done!”
“Lord, have I intentionally followed you? Thank you, Jesus, for showing me areas I have held on to myself- I choose to give up those areas of my heart to you. Help me to love all as you love all- Transform my heart like yours! To God be the glory! Absolutely you are ALL there is! Help me to give all as you did – your very life. Praise you, Holy Lord. “All that I am and have comes from God, and it’s out of your hand that I give.”
