How deep is your faith?
I have realized that all I need in my life is my faith in God, as long as I have that everything else will fall in place.
It is a shame that a lot of religious people scare off people who are trying to find their faith. They make it seem like you need to be perfect in order to find faith or in order to come to church. So people think “Well, I’m not perfect so this won’t work for me” and walk away.
Steve Harvey always says “You will never be perfect so quit trying!” And he’s right, it’s not about being perfect, it’s about trying to be the best you you can be, that’s all. It’s about getting to a place where you can find peace and joy because you have faith and you know no matter what storms you might be going through, you will hold on to that faith and know it will be alright.
You hopefully will look at your bad times and think “What is the lesson I am supposed to be getting from this or think, this test will be for my testimony” and you will not lose hope.
When your business is not going as you would like it, when your salary gets cut, when you lose your job, you will stay calm in the midst of the storms because you know you have deep faith and you know God will provide for you.
Maybe you’re stressing over your kids, your love life or your family. You don’t know what to do and it’s tearing you up inside.
I know that some of you might be saying “Well, she’s in a dream world, like what, I am supposed to do, not worry? Yea right, so who’s going to pay my bills, she must have lost her mind”
When it’s just the opposite, I have my mind and it is clear.
I chose not to worry about things I cannot change. So tell me, is it better to make myself sick? To worry? To have stress? Are those things going to make it better? Are they going to pay my bills? Get me more money?
No, it won’t, but if I keep my faith, if I pray and know it will be okay, I might be in the same situation but I feel peace, I am calm, I can hear God’s voice for what is to come next and I am more open to things I have never thought about before.
Sometimes life has a way of making you slow down and take a look around. To make you appreciate what you do have, it is all in the way you look at things. Especially during the pandemic, it has hopefully taught us to be grateful for our health, for our families and friends and to not to depend on a job, on a paycheck but just to depend on God.
So today my friends, I remember one of my New year’s resolutions was to “Pray and let God worry” which is a wonderful quote from Martin Luther King. And each and every day I do just that. Try it, it is amazing how just that little change can change your life!
