Where Is Our Faith!

It is our human nature to be impatient, easily discouraged and depressed. It is also the devil’s goal to get and keep us there. Our choices, if we choose, are either stay in these dark areas or seek help from God who has given us the keys to handle these situations. Instead, we try to handle these problems our way and they become mountains. They are now worse than they were. Luckily for us, it is never too late for God. Another problem of ours is turning things over to him. It’s hard to let go. But what is faith? In Hebrews 11:1; Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Faith is a gift from God to the Christian and faith can be increased by the growth of the "believer" through God's Holy Word and through various actions detailed in God's Word. Belief has action but without "substance" until faith has been applied by the giver who is God. Does it sound complicated? I hope not. Which brings us to hope. Hope is the feeling that what is wanted can be had or that events will turn out for the best. Hope is a belief in a positive outcome related to events and circumstances in our lives. And we trust God enough that we don’t need to worry about our problems because he told us to trust in him already. Proverbs 3:5-6.
