God placed this blog on my heart a few years ago, and He is showing me the time is now ripe for it’s fruition. My purpose for naming this blog eleven1faith is threefold. First, Hebrews 11:1 is one of my favorite Bible verses. Having faith in God even when I can’t see where He is leading has always been hard for me. As I’ve grown in my relationship with Christ, I’ve learned to trust Him more and focus on where I am in the present, versus fretting about past mistakes or future concerns. The second reason is to share how God has worked in my life through prayer, people, circumstances, being in His word, and studying his Word. Through this, I’ve learned how to see God at work in my life. We have a tendency to put God in a box and not have the faith to believe He can do impossible things through us. So my goal is to help others live out eleven1faith. Not just understand it, but to put it into action. The third and final purpose is more personal to me and is a story that is unfolding in my life right now. Someday I will write about it. We all have a calling to speak the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ. I hope this blog empowers others to use the gifts they’ve been given to further His Kingdom.
