These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold—though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world.
1 Peter 1:6-8
It seems like every day my faith is constantly being tested. Things are coming up every day right now that are testing me, and I have two choices: one, to just give up and run, or two, have FAITH, and trust that God is going to work everything out for my good.
I do not know how some people think that they can do this whole life thing on their own. They can try all they want, but it is impossible! Trust me, I thought I could. I thought that I could make my own decisions and that they were best. HA! Boy, was I wrong! I am so thankful that I have the Holy Spirit to guide me everyday and help me to make the right decisions.
Seeing that we can't do life on our own, it does require FAITH in Jesus Christ to believe that He is always with us, always helping us, always loving us. The Bible says in 1 Peter 1:6 that, "our FAITH is far more precious than mere gold." I Corinthians 13:13 says, "Three things will last forever—FAITH, hope, and love—and the greatest of these is love." Our FAITH is good and will last forever!
No matter how hard life can get and no matter how hard the trials we are facing seem, our God remains FAITHFUL. He will bring you through your hard times. Trust Him. Have FAITH. Never stop praying(1 Thessalonians 5:17). He holds us in His hands.
This is my command—be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” -Joshua 1:9
Day after day, Our God is FAITHFUL......
