Faith in my Faith in God...

At one point in life, God lets you get to a point of questioning your own faith in Him. Ones world is shaken to the core and all around and even within can come crashing down.

For Christians, the Turning Point or the Moment of Truth, is when or if one can stand in God, even after such trials and storms.

Where Christians fail; they fail to simply ask, or if they ask, they either lack the patience, are not seeing the answer in from of them or they are missing the point altogether. Some Christians bluntly lack the Faith in their Faith in God; they expect the Lord God to do it all.

God will give a divine answer or even divine intervention in a situation or circumstance, from time to time, but even that can be a crutch. The Word says, Cast all your cares upon the Lord, it doesn’t say, The Lord will do all the ground work; That’s our part, it’s the lease we could do...the very least, it’s all in his Book.

Ask and you shall receive...Again in the Book, but it’s on His time, because it’s His plan and after giving His begotten Son to die for us, I feel that is proof enough He knows what He is doing.

To those who Fail to Ask:

Life’s Storms arise and the boat is rocked relentlessly. Financial issues then followed by Family issues, than closely followed (in a Christian’s case) an issue of Faith; why isn’t God helping me? Why is he letting this all happen? And/or is this shit even real?

Again divine answers or divine interventions of God right then and there happen now and again, but not always! You may get the whole solving all your problems, with the sky opening up and a choir of angels singing and the Jesus himself emerging from the blinding light in all His Magnificence's. If that happens to you, you actually might be at the Rapture and in which case, I pray you have all your ducks in a row then.

But all jokes aside, the answer will come in simple forms, that one may never expect; an answer in everyday life. And that’s typically the last place people tend to look. Nature is also one place where God can speak to you; the solitude of oneself, shutting out all distraction to bring forth a high level self-understanding, thus the term soul searching or looking within. It in the revelation of thought, of contemplation, of mediation, of conversation; take your pick. All this is that of an epiphany, enlightenment if you will. As you ask, you shall receive; it’s an elementary concept
