My good friend Lisa gave me an awesome book named Reckless Faith. It's a about a girl named Beth and her husband who live in Mexico and have established a ministry to help orphans. Her stories of all sorts of situations with the children, break my heart but also give encouragement of having a ....reckless faith....trusting that God will show up, exactly where and when he's needed.
One statement rings true to our current situation of waiting. She said, "Sometimes reckless faith requires no further action. You just hold on to the limb you've been led out on and trust that it doesn't break."
2 Corinthians 9:7-9
God loves it when the giver delights in the giving. God can pour on the blessings in astonishing ways so that you're ready for anything and everything, more than just ready to do what needs to be done. As one psalmist puts it, "He throws caution to the winds, giving to the needy in reckless abandon."
