'It takes courage to expect the best. Anyone with unbelief can expect the worst' Bill Johnson.
Read this quote this afternoon, and struck by the amazing implications of that, but for positive and negative. This morning was on leadership and how we respond to it, but also how the Israelites respond ed to it when they were about to enter the Promised Land. The saw teh hugeness and potential for danger and were afraid, rather than keeping their eyes on God, and expecting the best, for themselves and they whole company of people.
But it was Joshua who expected the best, who had the courage to trust God in each circumstance.
It's not fun stepping out and challenging expectations, but so rewarding when you do. God is good!
