What do I have faith for

I was having a beer with a god friend last night (yes, in Scotland we can have a beer and still go to heaven) and he was asking me what do I have faith for? This got me thinking because i could have snapped back and given him the correct answer: “I see thousands of kids getting saved and my leadership impacting generations”, (which I do anyway). But to have faith for something I believe that you must be able to see it happening in your mind, you must be able to see a picture of what it looks like, for instance for our kids ministry to go to the next level, I see us having separate rooms for different age groups, more leaders, the funnest most exciting programmes that make kids want to bring their friends. But if I can’t see this in my head I probably don’t have faith for it, I just know the right answer to give my leaders, and this will fall because God works with faith not right answers. What do you have faith for, I encourage you start writing down what it looks like, because as James said “In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.” James 2:17.
