Did I catch your eye, or your attention with that title? I know it caught mines when it came to me. I mean really who needs faith? What has faith done for me lately? Has my having faith delivered me from anything of significance? I cannot speak for anyone else, but as for me, faith has been my lifeline. My faith is the only reason why I am still here today. Without the faith I have in God, there is no telling where I would be right now. No money to pay my rent; my faith helped cover what I was lacking. My son in the hospital having surgery for something we did not know he had; my faith brought me through it. Loss of job after job and no telling where money would come from; my faith supplied it for me.
These are just a few instances in which my faith played an integral part in my still being here today. Hebrew 11 states "Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." Faith, it starts in our hearts and our minds; and slowly leaks into every inch of our bodies. For me it's the feeling I get when I know something grand is coming my way. I can feel it deep down, it's an emotion that I could never put words too. I know when I ask God for something, it's coming my way. Faith is Mark 11:24 "Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours."
You might not think it could be that easy, but believe me it is. Those are not my words, I did not come up with them. Open up the bible and read them for yourself; these words are coming from God. Now isn't this what Hebrews 11 said faith was; "faith is being sure of what we hope for". We all have faith, but a lot of us have yet to tap into it. If I can give you any sort of advice today, let it be that faith is something you need to have. At this moment I am pressing God for something, and I know it will work out for me, because of my faith. I asked, and I am continuing to believe that it is mines, so soon I will receive it.
Remain in faith, and if you have yet to tap into your faith; do so now. Our father is awaiting you.
