Did you know despite its gift of leaping high and long – the impala can easily be contained in a zoo behind a three-foot-high wall?

Across the African reservations, impalas run freely, jumping farther than thirty feet and clearing over ten feet high. So how does a short wall stop the impala from taking the leap?

Because the impala won’t make the jump into what it cannot see. The animal remains trapped in self-imposed limitations simply because of its inability to take a leap of faith.

Faith is kinda like that. Because we lack faith, we stay stuck behind walls of fear, doubt, insecurity, and self-preservation. Faith isn’t functional until it’s an action. It involves your feet, not your feelings.

Faith is acting like God is telling the truth. We run, jump and freefall when we hear His word without having to see it first to know it is true.
