Have Faith in God

Good afternoon, friends. Happy Father’s Day to all you dads!
‘have faith in God’, mark 11:22, words of Jesus. Who is your faith in when you pay your bills? Your paycheck, your boss or your Provider? Who is your faith in when you come up sick? Your doctor, your test result or your Healer?
One thing I learned today is .. Faith in God never puts pressure on people. Because you are not looking to people to meet your needs. I am still working on this. J
Even though people in certain jobs (airline ticket agents, clerks, etc) are supposed to provide a service for your money, trusting in God will help you to rest while dealing with them. Even if they aren’t providing the service you paid for, trusting in God will help you deal with them in a kinder, gentler way. God is your source. Not your husband or wife, not your job or even your pastor. That makes it simpler, now, doesn’t it? J have faith in God, the Faithful one!
I love you all,

healed by His stripes,
Nancy

  1. This is one of the hardest lessons that I've had to learn--over and over again. I like it SO much better when I know that paycheck is coming but the Lord seems to keep us in a place where paychecks are unpredictable. And I still struggle with it sometimes.
