Praise God, I really needed this. I've been beating myself up for not having enough faith.
We all do, my FRiend. satan LOVES to whisper those things in our ears. We all have a MEASURE of faith. Sometimes we don't use it enough, but we do have it.
Hi O is the AC
Sorry so slow in answering.
Faith ... hmmmm ...
Me and my faith ... well, I do try to hold up the shield of faith to quench the fiery darts of the enemy ... and I KNOW MY REDEEMER LIVES ... and I try to remember to "take it to the Lord in prayer" ... and I ask Him to help my unbelief.
I am NOT a super Christian. From the time I first heard the gospel till when I read the gospel tract left in a restroom and prayed the prayer on the back and was instantly changed into a believer was more than two years. I had grown up in a non christian home, so hearing the gospel was a new experience for me. But that stayed there at least two years without my doing anything about it. Then, as I said, I found a tract in a public restroom, read it, prayed the prayer, and I BELIEVED. I was changed, and that not of myself, it was the gift of God. I can't explain it. 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear the hour I first believed.
And I know the Lord is in my life, here with me, everyday. I am AWARE of that.
So, in those ways, I do have FAITH.
However, thinking back, the two times I have been present when someone died, I did not pray for them to be raised from the dead. That did not even occur to me. I wonder what might have happened if I did?
So, if that's what you are referring to as "faith", I'm with ya. I can't say if I have "enough" faith either.
But at any rate, don't beat yourself up.
Blessed Friday evening to you. It's just now sundown here where I live.
