The only thing that really is limited is our faith. If God calls you to soemthing, He will make a way for you and we shouldn't consult our wallets for a determination of whether we can do it. That would be called going to Mammon, and no one can serve two masters.<br /><br />As for my own faith, I see more and more each day how often I walk by sight and not by faith. That I haven't really lived Proverbs 3:5-6, but, like the disciples, I am praying that Jesus will increase my faith.Bryan Rileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00788345747841842640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28456747.post-32356785584343177972006-11-03T08:55:00.000-06:002006-11-03T08:55:00.000-06:00I've known Bryan for many years and he has always ...I've known Bryan for many years and he has always had great faith in God. And that's what it takes to do what he and his family is doing; serving the Lord and having faith in Him to provide the means to survive in today's world. Visit Bryan's ministry website at <a href="http://www.fjministries.com/mission-support.html">FJ Ministries</a> and consider supporting him, his family and the Lord.<br /><br />I'm at a point in my life where I feel like I'm finally growing in my faith with God. After thirty some-odd years I've finally learned how to listen when God is speaking to me. When Bryan told me he was quitting his Fortune 500 job to go into ministry for the Lord, I knew I was going to support him but didn't know exactly how until God revealed His plan. I work in IT and through the use of my skills I am helping Bryan build his ministry through the use of technology and the Internet.<br /><br />The Lord continues to call me into service but I feel like I'm lead to serve locally right now. As I continue to build my relationship with the Lord I know some day He will call me to serve abroad. I pray my faith will be as strong as Bryan's is right now!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28456747.post-70810847438763551962006-11-03T03:15:00.000-06:002006-11-03T03:15:00.000-06:00Bryan -
When I got to the end of this post and yo...Bryan -<br /><br />When I got to the end of this post and you said "consider how you can support them" I was overwhelmed by your heart for missions. Because I know that you are raising support also for the work you do, and for you to so unselfishly pass on the stories of others as you have been doing, well ... it humbles me. It takes a lot of faith to focus more on the work than on grabbing your piece of the mission funding pie ... at least it would take a lot of faith for me.<br /><br />You and your family are an inspiration to me. I know it sounds trite ... but true nonetheless.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
