How is Your Faith?

There is a story told of a man who had been traveling for quite sometime. It was hot and he was getting thirsty. He can upon a water pump, beside the pump was a jar of water with a note that read. “The pump must be primed before it will work. In the jar is just enough water to prime the pump. If you prime the pump, you will have more water than you could possibly drink, but if you drink any of the water in the jar you will not be able to prime the pump. After drinking the water, please refill the jar for the next traveler.”


This man had a choice. Did he have enough faith that by pouring the water into the pump he would get enough water to drink, or was he going to just drink the water in the jar?

How is your faith? Do you trust God's plans for you as you go into 2010? Do you believe God's promises?
 
Jeremiah 29:11 says, "For I know the plans that I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope. (NASB)
