A thought by Andy Stanley from his book, Fields of Gold (Kindle Locations 98-99). Kindle Edition . Fear is always where faith is. When we had the opportunity to step out in faith and move from Long Island to Florida I had many days of unrest. It wasn’t so much the moving but the buying of a home. If you are renting and you don’t like it you just wait out the year and then move. But I thought owning was so permanent and I had some fear in that. For many people it takes great faith to risk but for me the fact that I was saying this was it had some anxiety attached to it. The day the peace came was a day that I was at Jones Beach on Long Island praying my anxieties out to God and He let me know that He wanted me to come to Florida to be near my mother and we stepped out in faith and made the move. I had been seeing in His word that we as God’s children are to take care of the poor and the widows and God reinforced in me that this was my time to do that with my mother
