Faith with no action is NOTHING!!!

Do you have a dream? Or, are you day dreaming?
I believe everyone have a dream...
Be it a dream to be a billionaire, or, just dreaming to become beautiful...
Some may have a little dream which others may think that it's actually very common...
Such as, hoping themselves can own a pet...Haha...
That's also a dream...don't laugh...

Ok, let's return to the main point....
We may not have a wonderful background...
Maybe we are poor, live in rural area, or, we are orphan?
Whatever kind of background we are in...
We might even think that in the situation like this, we have no dream, and no future...

So, let's us learn something from a woman...
Her name is Rahab...
She doesn't have a wonderful background as well...
She's an idol worshipping gentile...
She worked as a prostitute...
From human's sight, she has no dream, no future!!!

One day, she heard that how great was the God of Israelites to help them to crossed over the Red Sea...
And they were all going to attack the city that she's living in...
But, Rahab was not afraid, she just believe that the God is the real God, and she want to follow this God...
And so, when the Israelites sent two men to Rahab's city...
She took an bold action to help those two men...
She has the faith that if she help them, she and her family will be saved too...
While waiting the two men to save her and her family, her faith never fades...
Don't know how long had been waited...
At last, her faith brought salvation to her and her family!!!
All the people in the city was killed, except Rahab's family...

The lessons that we can learned from this story are :
When we have a dream, we must also take into bold actions to accomplish it!!!
We must believe that we can do it!!!
Not just believe for a few days, or a few months...
Our faith must endures...

The last but not least, God will only bess us while we are DOING it....
A dream without action will not be blessed...
