\u00a0<\/strong>The ravine is wide full of rocks and debris<\/h6>\n
Danger and disaster is waiting\u00a0there, you see<\/h6>\n
Turbulent waters, undercurrents too<\/h6>\n
How will we reach the other side?<\/em><\/h6>\n
We could build a bridge; me and you\u2026<\/h6>\n
Who are you kidding, we are only two<\/em>\u2026<\/h6>\n
A bridge of faith that\u2019s what we\u2019ll do\u2026<\/h6>\n
Come on now, friend, and let\u2019s begin\u2026<\/h6>\n
You\u2019ve given me hope and with that I will send\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
Word to the village they have lots of men\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
When Noah built the ark God gave him the design<\/em><\/h6>\n
If God can do it for him, then I\u2019m sure we can find\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
Men\u00a0and women with a vision who\u00a0will make the\u00a0time\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
God wants bridge builders of faith, hope, and love\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
Then we\u2019ll see God\u2019s favor flow from above,<\/em><\/h6>\n
It will bridge the gap over the perilous ravine\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
For faith is a bridge, of things hoped for, and evidence of things, not seen.<\/em><\/h6>\n
Love is the glue, hope holds us up;\u00a0faith pleases God, when it\u2019s seen in me and you!<\/em><\/h6>\n
~Marla Shaw O\u2019Neill August 14, 2017<\/h6>\n
Faith in What We Don\u2019t See<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/h6>\n
The fundamental fact of existence is that this trust in God, this faith, is the firm foundation under everything that makes life worth living. It\u2019s our handle on what we can\u2019t see. The act of faith is what distinguished our ancestors, set them above the crowd. <\/span>Hebrews 11:1-2<\/span>The Message (MSG)<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/h6>\n

But for right now, until that completeness, we have three things to do to lead us toward that consummation: Trust steadily in God, hope unswervingly, love extravagantly. And the best of the three is love. 1 Corinthians 13:13 <\/strong><\/span>The Message (MSG)<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
