Faith.
Believing God's promises
True
Resting in that belief
because God said so.
He does not lie.
Faith.
Believing God sent it,
therefore,
it must be good for me.
Faith.
Believing God said
trials will come,
therefore,
it must be good for me.
Faith
Believing
His Word
His Truth
His Way
His Life
Where is our faith?
Why
is it only the misery
we see in the midst
of every trial?
Why
do we not see the good
that will come out
of our struggles and pain?
Why, in our wildest imagination,
do we not see
any good thing?
"The Lord has established His throne in heaven, and His kingdom rules over all." ~ Psalm 103:19
It is His - our Lord, Jesus Christ
His kingdom
that rules over all
The best of times
The worst of times
We are to bless Him
for all of it.
"Bless the Lord, O my soul;
and all that is within me,
bless, His holy name!
Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and forget not all His benefits
who forgives all your iniquities,
who heals all your disease,
who redeems your life from destruction,
who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies,
who satisfied your mouth with good things." ~ Psalm 103:1-5
Bless Him
and bless others through the blessings God has bestowed on us
Love Him
and love others through the example Jesus has shown us
Seek His forgiveness
and forgive others as Jesus forgave us,
being reconciled through His grace, His peace, His love.
