Stepping Into October With Faith

As we step into the month of October, let’s leave behind the fears and anxieties of the past. We may never forget how those moments made us feel or what happened, but we can learn from them.

Embarking on the future means continuing to put your best foot forward - even when you don’t know where your next step might lead. The unknown can be daunting. When I walk my dog at night, for instance, it’s dark, quiet, and sometimes unsettling. It feels like someone could be nearby, lurking or waiting. Yet, even in that fear, the dog still needs to go out.

In those moments, I remind myself that no matter how I feel, Jesus is walking with us. As 2 Timothy 1:7 says: “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”

With that in mind, remember - God is waiting for you to take the first step. If it’s in His will and at the appointed time, He will allow everything to fall into place for you. Sometimes, blind faith is far better than a calculated risk.
