#Faith Quotes

THE WORD FOR 26/12

Paul says: "The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love." (Galatians 5:6) How does the Bible define faith? According to Hebrews 11:1 – “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” Thus faith means putting your trust in Jesus and having confidence that He will fulfill His promises. When the world seems to be falling apart, our faith stands secure on the rock-solid, trustworthy promises of God and His Word.

My prayer for you today is that you may always have this kind of faith, and that you may receive all that God has in store for you!

 God is wholly trustworthy, so much so that we can base our lives on Him and His Word, no matter what our physical eyes tell us.

You're not powerful enough to ruin God's plan for you.

In case you thought you blew it.

In case you thought you were too far gone.

In case you are stuck in fear.

Rest in the fact that God is a God of redemption, and He knows your limitations.

Psalm 103:13-14 reminds us: "As a father shows compassion to his children, so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear Him. For He knows our frame; He remembers that we are dust."

If you're seeking to honor God, you're exactly where you need to be. He sees your heart, your sacrifices, and your obedience. It's not about perfection, but submission. God fulfills His plans through willing hearts.

Please don't think that you messed up the story.

Continue to show up faithfully, and know that God, in His faithfulness, will do His part and direct your path. 🌿

I know change can be scary and overwhelming. We often get so attached to what we have that we cling onto it, tooth and nail. It does not stop change from happening. It merely makes it more difficult to accept and navigate. You see, change is inevitable. But moments of change bring with them extraordinary opportunities to be brave. To accept our fear and our pain. To build the courage to let go. To put our trust in Allah and be bold enough to hope. Every pain we taste will be followed with joy. Every hardship will be followed with ease. Every night will usher in a new day. Learn to let go and to expect only the best from Allah. Do your best with what you have today and leave tomorrow to Him.

All will be well, my love. All in due time.

Note #16

Gratitude and kindness hold immense power. They're like the sunshine that warms our souls and the gentle breeze that soothes our hearts. When we express gratitude, we acknowledge the goodness in our lives, no matter how small. It's about recognizing the little moments of joy and the people who bring light into our days. Kindness, on the other hand, is the language of love spoken through actions. It's the simple gestures that make someone's day brighter, like a smile or a helping hand. Together, gratitude and kindness create a ripple effect of positivity. When we're grateful, we radiate positivity, uplifting not only ourselves but also those around us. And when we're kind, we inspire others to pay it forward, creating a chain reaction of goodness in the world. Think about the last time someone showed you kindness or expressed gratitude towards you. How did it make you feel? It probably warmed your heart and brought a smile to your face. That's the magic of these simple yet powerful acts. In a world where negativity sometimes seems to overshadow the good, embracing gratitude and kindness can be like shining a light in the darkness. It reminds us that there's still goodness in the world, and that each of us has the power to make a positive impact, no matter how small. So let's embrace the power of gratitude and kindness, not just today, but every day. Let's take a moment to appreciate the beauty around us and spread kindness wherever we go. Because in a world that can sometimes feel chaotic and uncertain, these simple acts have the power to bring hope, joy, and connection.

“To one who has faith no explanation is necessary. To one without faith, no explanation is possible.”

- Thomas Aquinas

[thewordfortheday]

Faith is an essential element of our lives. We need faith as we face the different seasons and the change that they bring. But in all this we can expect and believe that Jesus will do the impossible for us.

Hebrews 11:1 defines what faith is.  It is the assurance of what we hope for and the certainty of what we do not see. 

We need always to have faith in God and believe that He is able to fulfill all that He's promised us. Not one of His promises will fall to the ground. Every one of them will come to pass. We need to be patient and wait for His timing. 

The people in the Bible, who God used, were known for their faith in God. Against all odds they put their faith and trust in God. 

Hebrews 11:2 says, Men of God in days of old were known for their faith. Let us be people of faith and expect great things from our God.

“Because all the things God isn’t for me,” she said, “you are. Because of you, I see Him every day. So start talking, lizardman, but I warn you, you’ve got a hard talk ahead of you if you’re going to convince me there’s no God after He gave you to me.”

In English we say “ I am in love with you.” In poetry we say, “ my soul rests where your heart lays.

One big thing I'm taking into 2024:

Letting God lead the way.

Letting God lead doesn't always look the way you think it does. Oftentimes, it leads you into the uncomfortable. It leads you into leaning not on your own understanding, even when your understanding looks convincing. It leads you into waiting and praying longer than you expected. It leads you into making decisions that don't always seem to make sense.

But praise God. I'm so grateful for the times I let God lead in 2023.

When you let God lead, you are letting the all-knowing Father show you who He is. You get to see Him show up. You see the fruit of obedience. You see that His ways are the best. You see answered prayers. You experience His joy and provision in the most unexpected moments.
