Faith and Trust

 Sometimes where you are deeply rooted in Christ we have to go out on a limb of faith.  I mean sometimes we can get complacent in our faith, and want God to do something for nothing.  For instance when God provides food, or provisions he is giving us our daily bread.  We should be thankful for food especially in this economy, and time.  It should be easy to shout hallelujah on the good days, and yes the not so good days.  It says that everything works for our good so those not so good moments are shaping us for something.  In my case it's teaching me trust and patience.  I have to learn to wait on God, while trusting the process.  

I think that trust, and faith goes hand in hand.  We trust God to heal us when we are sick.  We have faith in God to provide knowledge, and skilled people to assist us.  We trust the Lord to help us in a time of need, and we have faith to be led by the Spirit.  The race that we are running is not a competition, but is is an individual journey.  If you make it first give someone a hand, and may he/she may continue to help the next one.  To finish may we never get weary in service, and complacent in our prayers, and faith.  Until next time may God bless you with and prosperity.
