Faith is a verb

I never ever saw myself as a person that would ever have a blog.  But it's been on my heart lately, so last night I just sat down and did it.  Nevermind that it probably took 5x as long as a normal person to set it up.  I don't even know why anyone would read it, except that I am expecting God to work in amazing ways in my life.  And when those amazing God moments happen, I want the whole world to know about it! I am praying for opportunities to do something radical for His kingdom.  It's ok if my life doesn't end up looking normal.  I just want to be totally available to Him.  I want to live by faith and not by sight.  To not just say that I trust in the Lord with all my heart, but for my actions to prove it.   

"What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it?  In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds".  Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds.
-James 2:14-18
