Faith
Faith is essential as a Christian. Faith is believing when you can’t see the proof. Faith is following God’s leading without knowing where. Faith is trusting God’s purpose without knowing why.
I know, for myself, I have questioned God; asking Him why it’s taking so long, or why do You have me on this path?
Right now I’m wondering why God’s not answering a prayer of mine. It’s been almost a year now.
I know in my heart that God is working diligently on my request. And I also know that it involves several parts and parties. I also know that if this is not His will for me, then it will not come to pass.
I know my God knows my heart. He knows my desires and He wants nothing more than to give them to me.
I don’t need an explanation from God as to why ‘it’s taking so long’ (in my opinion). I just know that God is faithful. ALWAYS.
God’s timing is never too late or never too early.
Faith and trust go hand-in-hand with God. You can’t have one without the other.
Isaiah 40:31 - “But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.”
I love this quote I saw today in my reading: “Sometimes faith will make you look stupid until it starts to rain….Noah.”
