Thoughts about Faith Part Two
I am now struggling with faith…oh don’t get me wrong I have NO doubt that Christ is my Savior and that he loves me and forever covered me in his grace. I have NO doubt that Jesus is with me forever on this earth and that I will walk with him into eternity. Even though I have No doubts about that I am struggling with trusting him completely you know that utterly with everything word. Why? you may ask
Well to put it quickly because the real word hit. I bought a car, moved into an apartment, experienced some of the world that Satan has a strong grasp on – basically I am overwhelmed I have a lot of financial responsibilities and no income – I have always wanted to be a teacher and for arguements sake I am one well in name but so far not in the practical sense. I still need a job and for now there is not one in sight. I have all these plans, all these ideas, all these responsibilities and I am having a hard time trusting in his promises… I know I am not alone that many people have been here too my prayer for the last few days has been like Thomas’ “Lord, I believe help though my unbelief.” I am comforted in the fact that Matthew 6 promises me that I will be taken care of and I am so thankful for the fact that I have friends that when the situation calls for it can gently (or not so gently) challenge and convict me.
Basically… Faith is hard
Those are my thoughts for today

Word. That’s all I can really say right now. Word. I think you know what all that encompasses!
I’ve been praying for you!!
Keep enduring
hang in there, sarah. God has His big strong hands around you and will not let you go, even if your faith-o-meter is at zero.
Dawn what the heck is a faith-o-meter? did God network that one in to your thoughts just now for Sarah, because I think that was a divine phrase!! I love you Sarah (you too Dawn)
