Faith

What is faith? According to Hebrews 11:1... "Faith means being sure of the things we hope for & knowing that something is real even if we do not see it." (NCV) If you're human (which I hope you are) you probably struggle with faith from time to time. Faith in Gods timing. Faith in everything working out. Just faith in general. 

I have had some stuff going on in my life lately. Some medical issues, trying to get our new place ready to move in etc. it seems like there is always something going on. Life is just busy. Aside from normal everyday stuff, full time jobs, cooking, laundry etc. Then you add the extra "stuff" and life can get pretty hectic. That is when I struggle most with my faith... I mentioned I've had some medical issues going on lately. Nothing major. It all ended up well & good. But I'd be lieing if I didn't think "what if?" at some point. I have a bad habit of letting the "what if?" thoughts creep in when I've got an issue going on in my life. I am a worrier. I over analyze every single thing. (pretty much like every other woman on the planet) But usually I snap myself out of it and say "Yeh what if?! So what! God would provide. God would take care of everything." We always think oh that will never happen to me. Whatever "that" is. But what if it did? How would you react? Would you react with faith? Or with doubt? I would hope I would react with faith. It's hard sometimes. But God promises He will always provide. He promises He will take care of us. That He has a plan for us. & He can't go back on His word. 

What area of your life, involving faith, do you struggle with most?

  1. LOVE this post girl! As women, I think we struggle not necessarily with having faith in God but in his perfect timing for us. It's hard for us to be patient and wait on things to play out in due time. Or at least that's true for me. I've been doing a bible study lately on women in the bible and constant theme is BE PATIENT!!! Hang in there! XOXO

    1. Oh yes! I think women have the least patience. Even though I hate to admit that haha. Cause we are such control freaks! (or I know I am!) I am working on that whole patience virtue thing!! :) Thanks for stopping by!
