Risky Faith | Reflection

Risky Faith | Reflection

If we do not risk anything for God we will never do anything great for him. – St. Louis De Montfort

Adopted child of God, with the love he has exuded in creating a covenant with you, what shall you do in return?

While he sacrificed his son to save your soul, and ensure you spend eternity with him, what have you then sacrificed?

What is your goal, oh heir to the throne of Christ? In what way will your serve as royalty serves? In what way will you better the lot you’ve been gifted?

Have you locked yourself away in the castle prison of the mind? Afraid to act, deterred by the madness of the broken world?

Have you forgotten that though this world was created by the lover of your soul, it belongs to the enemy? Have you forgotten that we are foreign travelers on this rotted soil?

So what have you to lose?

Surrender to Gods plan. Risk for the kingdom, and watch fulfillment in your soul change the world.

After spending a little over half a decade protecting and serving Birmingham, Alabama as a police officer, Jordan felt called to serve others in a different way. Through developing his own company, he found creating YouTube videos to be one of his many natural talents, ultimately leading him to discover his passion for all things digital media. Since 2014, he has continued to develop these passions and callings and now enjoys putting his talents to use serving others through the Avila Institute.
