Faith

All we like sheep have gone astray. We have abandoned our shepherd and had chosen to go our own ways. Jesus' death is that bridge for us to return. So it is written, so they have spoken and so I have known. In my own ways, in personal moments, I have felt His grace and peace upon me, gently reminding me of who He is, urging me forward to trusting Him more.

How weak my faith is, that I always choose my way. In me, there is this certain forgetfulness of the God I am serving. Faith in God is essential. For I have nothing more than my hands and feet if I do not have God. And the wordly things are faillable. I have nothing else to place my trust in. Here is a God, who is willing, and open, to helping His people go through life with as much meaning and significance as He desires.

We often place our faith in the people whom we know. And to know God, is to read His Word, which exposits all the wonderful truths about Him.

God can be found. He is not elusive. He will draw near to you, if you do to Him. If we ask, it shall be given, knock, and it will be opened.

Seek and we shall find.

These earthly shells are weak and tainted. No longer should I trust them. Rather, may the Holy Spirit grant to me, grant to my soul the fruits of the Spirit, enabling me to live the life God wants me to. May my life be filled with thanksgiving and joy, may my heart always look to Him, be in times of peace or turmoil.

Basically, I need to relinquish control for ALL aspects of my life.

It is a practice, and it is a lifestyle. I must be consistent, I must be faithful.

"He will never forsake you, He will never leave you."
