Faith Is
FAITH IS:
..The handle by which I take God's promises and
apply them to my particular problems.
..The conviction of realities I cannot see...or feel
..Thanking God when I am left with shattered plans,
knowing He has better plans.
..Standing on the fact that God has designed me
flawlessly for his purpose in the universe when
I feel everything about me is one big mistake.
..Standing when you can do nothing..trusting that
God will provide away in all things.
..Rembering that in the kingdom of God everything
is based on promise not on feelings
..Thanking God for his gift of emotional health, not
assuming it all stms from my ability to cope with
life.
..Resting in the fact that God has an objective in
leaving me on the scene when I feel useless to
him and a burden to others.
..Remembering I am indispensable to God when I
feel I only clutter up the landscape.
..Doing the right thing regardless of the
consequences, knowing God will turn the ultimate
effect to good.
..Realizing what God is going to do through me will
be on the basis of miracles not man power his
promise not my goodness
..Reliance on the certainty that God has a pattern
for my life when everything seems meaningless.
..Confidence in God's faithfulness to me in an
uncertain world, on an uncharted course through
an unknown future.
..Confidence in God when money is running out not
rolling in.
..Rembering, I am God's priceless treasure when I
feel utterly worthless.
..Something God will prove genuine by testing.
..Recognizing that God is the Lord of time when my
idea of timing doesn't agree with his.
..Appreciating that my capacity to
feel, communicate, think, choose, achieve,
create, commune with God comes from his
making me like himself.
..Developed through hardship, disappointment,
disillusionment, conflict, frustration, failure, loss -
not through stained glass nor sweet religious
props.
..Not a leap in the dark, nor a mystical experience,
nor an indefinable encounter with someone - but
trust in one who has explained himself in a
person - Christ in an historical record...
The BIBLE.
