My go to quote is “Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase”. I have had to use my faith in quite a few situations in my short lifetime. I’m the type of person who likes to be in control of situations that will have a big impact on my life. If I could sign up to know what will happen in the future every time I have to make a decision, I would gladly raise my hand. Life does not work that way, and I cannot be in control of everything. The only thing I can do is rely on my faith that things will work out in the end. Taking the first step, is sometimes the scariest thing to do when you do not know what lies ahead, but it is the necessary thing to do. I encourage you to take the first step of faith in fulfilling your dream or help someone else take theirs.

What was your latest situation/decision that you had to take a step of faith?
