Restoring my faith in people
Restoring my faith in people
So last week I wrote about how I was so upset that out of 45 people that I asked for help for my best friend only 5 came through.
I am Christian and as I always say I am not perfect so yes, I called out people because I can't understand why others can't have my heart.
Yes, I was disappointed in people especially these so called Christian's that were supposed to be her friends. But God always has a lesson for me and it happened when we went out on Saturday night. It was the usual trio of us and we met up with 2 others we knew from our church. As we were walking in, right behind us was our Bishop and we hugged him and said hello, then we went outside and he went to his table.
At the end of our meal we asked for our check and was told that our Bishop paid for all of our meals. We were shocked and grateful that he would be so kind to do this for us and this gave me hope in humanity once again.
This made me believe that there are still some great people in the world.
So of course God knows I am hard headed and need another message and yesterday when I got to church he gave me one.
Our Bishop had a guest speaker and the message was about having faith. See God always knows what message to give me. He started off with this verse:
"Faith is the substance of things hoped for but cannot see"
He went one to say that hope keeps pushing something into the future. Hope is the promise of the future, faith is the substance.
Faith is giving substance to our hope.
"Live by faith and not by sight"
There is always going to be something to be seen in life and we have to learn to be comfortable in that.
"Without faith it is impossible to please God"
God wants to reward you, he is a giving God but you must have faith. How can you believe in him and not have faith? Sometimes when things are going bad we ask for more faith. How do you know you don't have it now?
How does faith feel?
Faith has no feeling to it...
So then how do you get faith?
"Faith come by hearing and hearing by the word of God"
If you heard, then you have faith.
You can't work your faith into place, you already have faith. It in the bible and it tells us that:
"As god has dealt to each one a measure of faith"
God has given us all faith and I think sometimes I need to hear the word, sometimes I know I am not perfect and I need to hear the word, I need God to speak to me through my pastor so that I can change. I need to hear the word multiple times in order to change. I am so glad God knows this as well and keeps giving it to me and allowing me to learn the lessons and to grow.
So today my friends remember no one is perfect, people may not have your heart but if you have faith, if you hold on to that, it will show you the good in people and it will even renew your faith in people, just by having faith.
"Be the change you want to see"
"And just when the caterpillar thought his life over...he turned into a beautiful butterfly"
