A Great Litmus Test on Faith



Place a pair of unlaced shoes upon your feet.

Turn off the lights in the room so it is completely dark to where you can't even see your feet.

Then try tying your shoes.

Now, if you are like me, you should have found that even tying your shoes in the dark was easy. Why? Because we follow the same routine everyday when placing shoes upon our feet,so we should have gained enough confidence to where we are able to tie our shoes even in the dark.

Everyday we exercise our faith in routine situations that we probably don't give much thought to, such as: driving to work on a busy expressway with hundreds of other cars driving at high speeds and swerving in and out of lanes,or crossing a set of railroad tracks and trusting that the gates are working properly, or even hopping aboard an airplane.

So, what is stopping us from exercising that same faith when we find ourselves in a dark and dire situation?

Faith is as easy as tying your shoes in the dark. You just need to put it into practice on those dark days you may be facing.
