Faith

Feeding 5000 off five loaves and two fishes requires great faith. Trusting God to supply your needs is hard.  Everything that has worth requires faith.  Lord, it is my prayer that I have the faith necessary to do Your will.
Have a great day,

mustard seed

I used to look down on the mustard seed, but I realized how much wrong that was. The meekness of a mustard seed doesn't define it, it merely describes its size. God defines, people describe.  Reading His word is giving me something I've been lacking.  The Love of Christ leaves me in tears.

Faith filled Fridays

As I'm reading Matthew 11:28, my heart feels unburdened.  It is so good to know that despite it all, "He will give me rest."  
It is a great comfort to know how much He loves me.


The Greatest Man
Came to save a fallen world
That through Him
Life everlasting
Could be found.

God Bless yall.

Grace

Faith is the best to have and the hardest thing to keep. As a friend told me keep fighting and keep the faith.  I'm passing this wise advice. 
Have a blessed day!

My heart

Folks,
This is on my heart:
I am a Christian. One that is broken and flawed.  The only true happiness I can have is oneness with Him.  I've been saved, and this fact is the one that gives me pure tears of joy.  I can't mourn what I don't have.  Waiting is the hardest thing to do.  The fact is I never thought alot of things, and they have come true.  One of the hardest things of Christianity is obedience.  Waiting is obedience.  God's timing is perfect, mine, not so much.  I'm not a Bible scholar.  I have to remind myself that reading the Bible is not a chore, but a pleasure.  I don't know what easy is.  And that is a blessing.  I complain about going to doctors, but I want to look at it as a blessing.  I don't want to look at life as a chore.  Life is a blessing.

God Bless,
R
