Pure Faith

Dear readers, tonight I felt that the Lord gave me some information I need to share. This is concerning our walk of faith. Now, on to the meat of this commentary. It was brought to my understanding this evening that, as we walk thru life, as we are confronted with circumstances sometimes out of our normal range of control, we have to let God take the lead. What does that mean? It means that we have to step back, we have to say to God, Okay Lord, if you want me to die, I will die, if you want me to live in a homeless shelter I will live in a homeless shelter. God, if these circumstances go completely wrong and I end up...... (you fill in the blanks..) I will accept it as your will. This doesn't mean we don't make the best decisions possible. It doesn't mean we don't try our best to do what is right, what is acceptable, what is within our limits and maybe what is even a little or a lot out of our comfort zone. It may even mean going against a rule, of sorts, depending on what that rule is. Ultimately, we have to let God have full control, we have to trust in God that HIS sovereignty is what HE says it is and what Paul says it is, in many ways, it is a test not only of our faith, but for God to do what He says HE is able to do! If you have conscientiously been trying to live each day under God's microscope, so to speak, what I mean is in obedience to His word, then God will come through for you in every circumstance. He only lets us flounder when we haven't utilized our faith enough in the past to test His diligence in taking care of us. I am only able to write this because of my own experience. I am not a weather forecaster.  I am not a second guesser, I am not a fortune teller, I am a believer living out my faith walk, halfway around the world from where I was born and lived the majority of my life. This my dear friends and brother and sisters in Christ this is my story. This is my reality. If you want to read the verses on faith, you can do it in Hebrews 11, and if you need to know more, please read the page faith or suffering, also read the poem I wrote on faith and greatest of all, consult your bible on the subject.
