BE PERSISTENT IN YOUR FAITH

” I TELL YOU, HE WILL GRANT JUSTICE TO THEM QUICKLY! BUT WHEN THE SON OF MAN RETURNS, HOW MANY WILL HE FIND ON THE EARTH WHO HAVE FAITH? ” LUKE 18:8

As we walk through each day we find that there are times when we struggle with situations where we need to depend upon faith in our God in heaven in order to overcome. This faith, in which the Lord has so richly provided to us, must be used for all things on earth, small and large. But how can we use our faith for the larger struggles in our lives if we can’t first use our faith for the small struggles in our lives. It is much like physically strengthening our bodies, where we must begin by using small weights or running small distances in order to build up to the larger weights or longer distances. We need to build our faith and continue to make it stronger and stronger in much the same way. Our Lord is returning soon. When he does how will he find each of us living our lives? Will we be living a life of faith or will we be living our lives in fear and doubt? God has given us the opportunity to live lives on this earth in peace and joy no matter the situation. We must, however, have faith in him that he will take care of us in every struggle. If not, then our lives here on earth will be one of struggles, fears and grief. Let us build upon our faith and believe that we receive from God. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL SITUATIONS!
