Title:
Living By Faith
|
Hebrews 11:6
6.But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
I love this verse, because it is so true. In this life filled with so much stress and troubles, we have to live by faith. Just the other day a friend of mine ask how I know God is real. She was questioning how I can believe in Jesus when I can not see Him. She also questioned how can a child have cancer? My friend is lost and she has many questions, but right now she is very angry. Last week she lost her husband in an accident. She wanted to know how that I truly knew that the bible is God's holy word. She ask how that I knew that Jesus truly existed. My answers to her were as follows, I know that God is real because I feel His presence in my heart and know that He works miracles in my life. I know Jesus is real because just like I feel God in my heart, I can feel Jesus's love in my heart also. I know Jesus walks beside me daily and dwells in me. Why? Because I have faith, I may not be able to see Him physically, Oh but I can certainly say I know He is there, because I feel His presence. The part of children having cancer, I told her somethings we will not understand, and one day we can ask God why different things happened, that we never understand. I can not answer everything, and yes there are things that I do not understand, but I know God will give me peace, because by faith I can trust Him that things will turn out according to His will and glory. I know with all my heart that the bible is God's truth, His holy word. Because when I read it, and need guidance, through the bible God speaks to me. He shows me what He needs me to see, and then gives me encouragement to follow His plans through the Holy Spirit. I know that Jesus exists because the bible tells me so. I know that Jesus exists because one day He this sinner from my sins. Now Jesus guides my path daily, I am forgiven, only because Jesus died for our sins. Living by faith is the only way that I can truly make it through everyday trials. I fail God daily, but He forgives me when I mess up. I live by faith, because one day, my faith shall became sight. One day we will see God and Jesus in all their glory. I too battle with many questions and things that I do not understand. I read the bible to help me understand things better, it has been the best road map in my life provided by God in Heaven. I am praying for my friend, and asking God to give her the peace that I have come to know by accepting His only Son Jesus Christ. I pray for God to let the Holy Ghost give me the words to speak unto her when she questions me about Jesus. If God is giving the answers we can never go wrong. Pray for us to be a positive influence on our friend, that we will stay in God's will and encourage her, not discourage her. |
