One simple word...FAITH.....

I am currently sitting here at my computer thinking a great deal about one word...faith. When all the chips are down and you start sweating bullets over the things that are unseen to come, faith is all you have to hold you together. Life comes at us unexpectedly. There is no manual. There is no script. Faith. That's all we have. My God blessed me with the most wonderful father anyone has ever seen. My father had a heart attack years back. Some say, "If there was a God, why did this happen to him?" My reply is simple...."Since there is a God, he is still here." Faith. We don't know what tomorrow brings. I have faith that whatever shall happen, it will be according to God's plan. Without faith, life is an absolute mess. God doesn't ask a lot from us. Just to believe and have faith. To understand that when we ask for certain things he offers 3 replies-No, Yes, and Wait. The hardest part for us to do is wait. I myself am the most impatient person alive. When I want something, I want it now. Those who truly know me know this to be absolutely true. God is working in me to teach me patience. He is teaching me to use my faith because that's all I have to rely on. I have absolute faith that the best things in life are worth waiting on. When I feel weak, scared, tired and alone I have faith that He will pick me up and push me. He has a wonderful plan for me. I can feel it in my soul. Now I just have to be patient and trust in Him and have faith in wherever He leads me. "He is the Rock, his works are perfect, and all his ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is he. " Deuteronomy 32:4 He has brought me so far. This time I will let Him lead me. I know this is the right path for me. My faith is unshakable.
