"Having faith often means doing what others see as crazy. Something is wrong when our lives make sense to unbelievers."
taken from Crazy Love by Francis Chan
This is nothing new and is probably something you have heard in a sermon or two, but it bears repeating. I think a lot of Christians struggle with truly living their life by faith. Living by faith means you do not know what tomorrow brings, you will not know how a certain situation will turn out. Not being "sure" about the future (and we all know its impossible for anyone to ever really be sure of the future) is counter cultural for most people.
My one big concern, though, is that an unbeliever is not the only person who finds living by faith crazy. Christians do too. I have found in my life that there are times where other Christians struggle to understand how a person can have peace/faith during a period of complete uncertainty.
My prayer is that the way you life your life makes zero sense to unbelievers and encourages fellow Christians to step out in faith.
