Faith

Although it pains me to do so, I have to admit that sometimes my faith is not what it ought to be. Don’t get me wrong. I wholly believe in God and His promises and know that “all things work together for the good of those who love Christ Jesus and are called according to His purpose (Romans 8:28). But there are days when my faith gets shaken down to the core . There are days when I act like I’m doing this on my own. And horror of horrors, LOL, there are days when I feel like God has forgotten about me, which in turn leads me to try to handle things on my own instead of turning them over to God and letting Him handle it in His time and in His way, and having the faith that He will take care of it.

I wish I knew why it seems to be a struggle sometimes to keep the faith. Is it because things don’t happen in our time and in our way? Is it because so many bad things happen to us that literally destroy our faith?

This faith journey is not an easy one, but it’s one I’m going to do my best to not fail at. We aren’t even asked to have giant faith. God said in His word that if we just have faith the size of a mustard seed we can move mountains.  That’s miniscule, but can accomplish major things!

Just imagine what wonderful things we could have, what wonderful things we’ve missed out on because of our lack of faith. I hate to even think about it, but from here on out, I will trust and never doubt!
