Greetings:
Faith is something we hear
about often in any Christian walk. Faith is one of those things that is hard to
describe because we can’t see it, touch it or feel it.
The Word says without faith
it is impossible to please God. That should be enough to make each of us dig
deep into The Bible and find out exactly what this thing is that we call faith.
Hebrews 11:1 would be a good
place to start.
Over the last couple of
years I have put together some of what I call ‘faith nuggets’ that express in
my limited vocabulary what faith means to me.
This morning I will share a
few of those.
+Have you ever felt like you
were in sinking sand? God and faith are the only way out.
+It's pretty easy to believe
and have faith when all is going well in our lives. But when we are hammered by
the devil and feeling down, faith brings us through.
+Faith gives us the ability
to hold our heads high in the midst of our personal life storms because we are
confident there is going to soon be sunshine and peace.
+Faith allows us to wake each morning and say,
"God, what can we do for you today."
+Our faith allows us to smile in a hurting world
that needs God.
+Faith is walking into a dark storm and knowing
with confidence that sunlight will soon be shining on you.
+Sometimes our lack of faith turns into doubt and
robs us of a real blessing.
+Faith is not a Band-Aid. It's the complete fix
for whatever we face.
+It is hard to take direction from God on some
days and in some things without our own human conditions attached to it. That
is where faith comes in.
+When God speaks to us, we need to step back and
put what we feel away, put what we think away and put the whys away and just do
it.
+You know it's God's direction if you have peace
in your heart, even when your carnal mind might be telling you something
different. Don’t be afraid to walk in faith.
+Faith gives you the boost when the mountains
around us are crumbling.
+Faith can't be seen, but it is there every
minutes of every day, if we believe.
+Faith is that invisible blessed assurance that
everything is going to be okay.
In closing let me say that the world can be
divided into two groups: those who have heard already the Good News of Jesus,
and those who have not heard yet. I have confidence that God will take care of
that latter group.
Be blessed.
