Faith 

Faith is so simple but so incredibly easy to lose, it goes sideways in so many ways. When we are at a high point in our lives, we have faith that all is good. Yet it can be missed placed. Such as I thought it to be like a checklist. I say this to yall  it's  a loving relationship with Jesus Christ. As I’m guilty of how i saw it. I can recall a time when my faith completely shattered, and I lost all sight of everything that I hold dear to me. I started to believe I could be okay in all aspects of my life. Like they say, “I went down that rabbit hole and saw no end to it”. I can honestly to God say there’s no shame in losing faith. First, I urge you to acknowledge that your feelings are absolutely, unequivocally valid. It’s okay to feel frustrated, scared, when your life isn’t going or headed the way you planned or saw. It’s even okay to be angry at God when you feel like He isn’t listening. Often, the path to intimacy is paved with honesty, so if you’re losing faith in God, start by telling Him about it. You can even yell, scream, I mean everything in the book. I can say it will work until you start to talk to God.  

I had to come to full acceptance of being cowboy and I was grappling with doubts and losing faith in God. Life’s challenges and heart aces had shaken my core beliefs, leaving me feeling lost or distant from the divine. Here are a few thoughts I want you to consider: 

# 1. Be Honest with yourself and Validating Feelings: 

• Acknowledge your feelings: It’s okay to feel frustrated or even angry at God when life doesn’t go as planned. Be honest with Him about your doubts and struggles. He cares about your concerns and won’t shame you. God is always ready to hear you and loves unconditionally.  

• Faith is a Relationship: Remember that faith isn’t just a spiritual checklist; it’s a loving relationship with Jesus Christ. He desires your heart more than your accomplishments. 

#2. Reconnecting with God: 

• The Way: Early Jesus followers referred to Christianity as “The Way.” Knowing Jesus means knowing how to live and where to go. Jesus Himself said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life” (John 14:6). I urge you to seek Him as your guide. 

• Foundation in Christ: Rebuild your faith on the foundation of Jesus Christ and His Word. Faith isn’t just a feeling; it’s a solid anchor even in doubt and trials. 

Remember, faith journeys have twists and turns. Seek support, explore your doubts, and allow room for growth. You’re on a path, and there’s hope for a better way. 

‘Luke 1:37’ - “For with God nothing will be impossible” 

Faith = Belief and trust in a loyalty to God. 

‘2 Corinthians 5:7’ - “For we walk by faith not by sight” 

‘Romans 10:17’ - “So faith comes from hearing and hearing through the word of Christ” 

‘Hebrews 11:1’ - “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen” 

‘Mathew 17:20; 21:22’ - “Our faith if we choose to can move mountains”; “And whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive, if you have faith” 

‘Mark 11:22-24'; ‘Ephesians 3:12’ 

There are also other verses that point to faith all depending on how we or you understand the verses. 

Focus on positive                                                                                                                               *(trust is a necessity) 

Affirm yourself  

Imagine God doing something good 

Trust God in everything                                                                                                                          

Hope for the best                                                                                                                   *(-a belief and trust in God based on                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         evidence without any total proof. 

                                                                                                                                                                            -its taking a leap of faith.) 

-: pray, participate, promote, provide...... 

(John 3:16; 1 Corinthians 6:9-11; Philippians 4:12; and Hebrews 5:9) 

In these beautiful, amazing verses they go on to say that hope brought by God, will and should change our lives, the victory in our hard circumstances, us overcoming sin, also eternal salvation. All things are possible through a relationship with Jesus Christ. All we need to do is take a step towards faith and I urge you to take a leap of faith. 

The words used in these contexts are an immediate comfort to Mary, the soon-to-be-mother of Jesus Christ, the son of God. The Angel Gabriel comes and tells her of her role in the Messiahs Earthly Ministery. Gabriel the angel goes on to tell her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with GOD” and that she will conceive and give birth to Son of God and that she will him Jesus. Mary’s glorious faith in this very moment is beautiful is what we should all push to achieve and attain. 

The contexts, that follow of course, also include the rest of Scriptures, reasons, languages, and so forth. Gods' omnipotence is unequivocally without a doubt real (Revelation 11:17). That which can be done, is within His ability (Numbers 11:23). Absolutely nothing or any force or being can override His strength (Job 42:2). His power alone created everything which is or will ever be (Genesis 1:1; Revelation 21:5). 

God cannot contradict His own perfect unequivocal nature not because it would be too difficult but because the concept is meaningless. An “imperfect God” does not even reach the level of “impossible” because the idea itself is complete nonsense. 

Nothing is impossible for God Almighty. Our God can and will accomplish all things other than violating His own goodness, existence, and uniqueness that include every “actual” thing we could imagine.  

Mary’s response to this great news will be faithful, trusting, submission
