Faith
I just wish I could have all the faith in the world without having to go through all the difficult times to get me there. Just found out some news today that requires me to have faith. Faith that God knows better than me, and faith that whatever happens, God will get me through it. God is faithful. I just need to remember to be faithful to Him, too.

God never promised us that things would be easy...he did promise us the holy spirit to comfort us in times of need & He gave us the word to be encouraged! Here are a few verses about the topic at hand...
ReplyDeleteJames 1:2-5 "Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing."
1 Peter 1:6-7 "So be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you have to endure many trials for a little while. These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold--though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world."
I have never met a christian who had it all together or had perfect faith, it's a process, a journey... takes time to produce. God is very understanding and patient... he loves you & will walk you through your journey of Faith one step at a time! :-)
Thank you so much for the encouragement and reminder! It's so hard to remember sometimes that God has our best interest at heart, and even though I don't know what will happen in the future, He does. Your verses lifted me up and I thank you for that, sister! You are such a wonderful blessing <3
