Faith

What comes to mind when you think of the word 'faith'?  Is it what you believe in?  Your trust in an organization?  How you think of people?

I think of my Christian Faith-not an organized religion, my personal relationship with God.  I struggle with it at times, yet, if I did not question, then I do not think I would grow.

I stopped believing for a time, years ago, after I discovered through flash backs & became overwhelmed by the pain of sexual abuse-how could God let that happen?

God did not abuse me, God reached out to me while I was hurting & bit by bit I started to grow in faith.

I know this is a personal journey for everyone-sure you can have rules, but the most important part of it is Love.

I have lost faith in a lot of organizations over the years-I know they are run by people, who make mistakes.  I thank God there are great ones helping others all over the world.

It can be so frustrating when, with the age of computers, we are told oh the system is down or we can not make changes due to the fact that the computer system will not allow it?!

It takes time & effort to have faith in people-it also takes our part to be forgiving, cause we are not perfect either.

I do not believe that most people are unkind-they come across that way due to their own fears-it is easier & safer to show anger instead of being vulnerable.

Having faith in yourself is huge.  I can not stress that enough-if you lack faith, then it affects every area of your life.

So be kind, gentle, firm, convicted, loving-to build faith in you!

You Are Worth So Much!

God Bless
