Never Lose Faith



You could be in the middle of a bleak situation and it appears there’s no hope. Dump the thought! This is from the devil. He wants to you lose faith because he knows the truth. That truth is that God will take care of you. Satan also knows that you can’t please God if you have no faith (Hebrews 11:6). In case you don’t know what faith is, it’s what you want, but you don’t see it. Because you don’t see it doesn’t make it not real. You don’t see your pay check until you’re paid. Does that mean you stop believing you will get one at the end of the week? If you didn't believe you would get paid, you would ask for your pay upfront.



      There was a couple in the bible had a temporary faith amnesia. Abraham and Sarah thought since they were old, they wouldn’t have a child of their own. So Sarah sends her husband in with a pretty maiden to conceive a child. When it was all said and done, they created a problem that could have been avoid if they keep their faith and waited (Genesis 16:1-6; Genesis 21:2).


      Point is this: God is real and He will do what he says. Search through all your blessings right now. Didn’t God give you many of the things you wanted? He also gave you things you didn’t ask for. You trusting in Him means a lot. Don’t lose faith when what you see looks dim. Believe in the One who holds all things in his hands. Keep the faith.

I Got You!

Do you remember going to the arcades? You and your friends’ old rendezvous spot, battling for the top spot in one of the popular games. While you guys horsed around, a group of troublemakers bullied their way onto the machines? Your posy band together vowing to have each other’s back.  Now days, every man for himself. Someone will call 911 for you, any more than that would be heroic (Romans 5:7).  No one takes on any man’s cause anymore. The back-in-the-day phrase was "I got your back."

Understanding It Better By and By

    Funny how life has a way of showing you what you’re made of.  When adversity hits, what you say you wouldn't do becomes easier to do.  When the rubber meets the road, yes! you do the unthinkable.  Let's say you have a house fire and on the second floor is your baby and mom. You can only save one, which would it be? I've heard many say they would grab the baby since mom has been around a long time. I couldn't say.  I'm not in that situation right now.  There's no way to know what to do until tragedy hits.  Some can handle atrocities, whereas; other have no clue how to maneuver suffering nor know why hardship occurs.  Stop trying to figure out why hardships happens--only the Father knows.  He won't  have you guessing long.      The underlining reason at the end of your trials gives away the mystery. Experiencing hardship isn't fun but you will come out with more insight than ever before....

I Didn't See That Coming

Arriving at work, I put my lunch bag in the refrigerator, fired up the computer and  entered my logged on.  The phone rang.  "This is Ms. Swanson," I told the caller.  "Yes, right away."  I hung up the phone, reached for my keys and raced downstairs asking God to provide what I need from the spiritual realm. I wasn’t sure what I would run up against. A policeman was at my car writing a ticket. One of the sergeants’ saw my handicap placard on the seat and called me to come down quickly. While racing to the car, I noticed my IPhone watch on my arm. I wasn't allowed to wear it at work, especially with security violation written all over the action. I forgot to take it off! Supposed someone saw it, I could lose my job. Right at that moment I remembered to get my retainer from my purse when I put it in the truck. It could melt in the heat, costing a replacement cost of $300. All I can say is, "I didn't see that...
