Faith

It is not something you can just test. You can’t just dip your toe in to see if you like the feeling it brings.  You must jump in, full heartily. With your mind, body and soul you must make the choice to decide. Make that choice and jump in with all you’ve got, because after all it is the only life you have here on Earth. You are not given a second chance but are given the choice of a second life. Far better than one can imagine and greater than this one you are experiencing. You question it, only because it is indescribable and so mysterious. You may have doubts, but I suppose those come with all things in life, especially relationships and life long decisions. It is the best choice you can make for yourself though and you must not keep it from anyone. The word of God is to be shared among everyone. For some, faith comes easy, for others it is a life long struggle. I see the works of the Lord through nature and experience Him when the sun rises, when the snow falls and when the leaves begin to change color. Faith isn’t having a tattoo of a bible verse on you, it is not going to church every Sunday or raising your hands high when you worship the Lord, it is knowing with all your heart that there is a God and you will LOVE Him and TRUST in Him no matter what challenges life brings. It is KNOWING that Jesus died on the cross for YOU so that your sins can be forgiven and you can live eternally with Him!! Faith in the Lord is a decision that you make and a lifestyle you want to attempt to live in order to win the greatest prize ever offered to you. No one ever said it was going to be easy, so just take the leap and jump in!
