Have you ever had one of those moments when God has asked you to do something so big and so crazy that it can only be God?
There are times in our lives when we sometimes step out of our comfort zone and do something that was not easy. Most Christians (and I am one of them) would believe that God speaks to us and sometimes he asks us to do things that are bigger than anything we could humanly do, well that is what we believe at the time. To be totally honest, sometimes it may not be God at all, but just us thinking it was God.
However, I do believe there are times when the thing we feel God is telling is to do, can only be God. I don’t believe we are even that crazy to come up with some of the things God tells us to do.
Take Noah for example. I mean, who would think about building a boat in the middle of the desert because of an impending flood? Not Noah, that’s for sure. This incredible story (whether you believe it or not, just look at the big picture) shows exactly how God often speaks to those who believe on him. Many think God just told Noah to build a boat and Noah did it. That isn’t Gods style. We read in Genesis 6 that God shared his heart with Noah. It was a heart that was broken because the people of the earth had forgotten about God. God showed Noah what he would do, then God gave a solution to Noah. This is just the way I believe God rolls! He shares his heart, shows us the problem, tells us what he is going to do, then gives us the opportunity to be part of a solution.
The only problem is that when God shares his heart, often it results in a solution that people without that divine insight will think is crazy.
So I’m going through a bit of a Noah moment myself. No I’m not building an Ark, but a group of friends, my wife and I have heard God share his heart. He has shown us the problem and told us what he is going to do. Then he has offered us the chance to be part of the solution. Over the next two weeks I want to share with you six things which we feel has been on the heart of God.
So before I share the solution I want to share the reasons and the heart of God, because without knowing what God has said, our Ark will look to you like just another crazy bunch of Christians doing more crazy stuff!
So watch this space!

I’m kinda new at this Blogging thing. I’m “winging” it as I blog along, but learning a lot of new interesting things.
I was in agreement about “Time to build a Ark”. I wanted your opinion on my recent blogsite. http://www.psalm23vision.tumblr.com
And my visions I’ve been sharing resulting from a visit to me by a stranger.
