Tent Peg Faith

I wanted to share a couple of thoughts that relate a lot to where our Church Family is at, that maybe will encourage you on your faith journey?

Here is a scripture we really feel God has spoken to us through...

2 “Enlarge the place of your tent,
    stretch your tent curtains wide,
    do not hold back;
lengthen your cords,
    strengthen your stakes.
3 For you will spread out to the right and to the left;
    your descendants will dispossess nations
    and settle in their desolate cities.
Isaiah 54:2-3 niv

God is not asking us to throw away anything, nor is He asking us to start again.
He is asking us to take what we already have and stretch it a bit.
He is asking us to not just stretch in one direction, but a little more in every direction.

Imagine you are one of many people around what is collectively our tent...
Now imagine yourself with your tent peg in your hand, stretching it out a bit.
To the right and left of you people are doing exactly the same thing.
As everyone stretches together the tent invariably become bigger.
Bigger in space, effectiveness, expectation, resource - bigger everywhere.
Making room for us to grow and for others to find shelter...

Tent Peg Faith is all about letting God stretch us 'in faith'.
It is taking what God has given each of us and stretching it for His glory.

May God speak to you about where you can stretch in this season as you join others around our tent?

Something to think about...
