Stepping out in FAITH

In recent devotion I ended up reading about the F16 fighter planes, I got to tell you those planes are amazing. Just in case you did not know, let me fill you in on some details...Did you know that they can travel at the speed of 1300mph/2124km/h? Did you know that they can reach 50,000feet(15,240m) in apprx or less than 60seconds? But with all of that power and capabilities it cannot operate on its own, because without a pilot it would either fly uselessly or spiral out of control. I think that is is the same for our lifes, as christian some of us are SO talented that sometimes we forget that if we don't have God as our pilot in our lives, minitries, playing we are useless, and thus the reason sometimes we just spin out of control and crash...SPIRITUALLY, God has a plan for us, and sometimes in order for that plan to take place we need to apply faith, we need to let God in, and we need to let him be the pilot of our lives - Abraham experienced God's Blessings - and trust me the rewards were greater than he could ever imagine. God as a plan for you and me all we need to do is let go and let and let God in, let God be. I would like you to think about these questions and post some replies.
1) In What way does your life show that you are living for God's purposes and seeking His approval rather than the world?
2) Why is it difficult at times to leave behind your/our "Old life" and stepping out in faith?

Loooking forward to your reponses - let's share together in Christ. God bless you all!
