LOOKING FOOLISH
Faith is the willingness to
look foolish. Noah looked foolish building a boat in the middle of the desert.
The Israelite army looked foolish marching around Jericho blowing trumpets. A shepherd boy
named David looked foolish charging a giant with a slingshot. The Magi looked
foolish tracking a star to Timbuktu.
Peter looked foolish getting out of a boat in the middle of the Sea of Galilee. And Jesus looked foolish wearing a crown
of thorns. But the results speak for themselves. Noah was saved from the flood;
the walls came tumbling down; David defeated Goliath; the Magi discovered the
Messiah; Peter walked on water; and Jesus was crowned King of kings.
