Faith

Faith. What is faith? Well, according to dictionary.com, it is defined as, "Confidence or trust in a person or thing." So many times I forget how powerful and awesome God is and in turn, I start relying on myself with certain things. It's like God's not good enough to take care of me and He's not good enough to make the right decisions for my life.

Okay, seriously, a God who BREATHES stars into existance isn't big enough to know and understand what little things I'm going through? I think not. We just get carried away with what WE ant to happen and not what HE wants. We just need to wake up and realize how puny we are and how little control of things we have. God breathes STARS into existance! Stars, rocks big enough that we can't even concieve in our minds how big they are! How stupid and rediculous we, people on tiny little Earth, are!

It's like you're traveling on a road, and suddenly right in front of you is a fence. A fence you can't see over, but the person you're walking with can. You have to trust Him when He tells you when it's safe to open up the gate because otherwise, you've got to rely on yourself, blindly.

We've got to learn to trust Him when finances are in bad shape or when a loved one has become very ill. You have to trust Him that everything will turn out the way He wants it to and not the way you want it to. He has a master plan for your life and He knows what's best for you, no matter what the outcome is!

We have to learn to have faith in the One who created you and who made you come into existance! We've got to learn to swallow our pride and give it to Him!
