faith

The biggest necessity in having a relationship with our Heavenly Father.

Do I have it?

Sometimes.

Sometimes not.

I wish I did all the time.

Don't you find it weird that we pray to God to help us with our faith?

It's almost like a slap in the face.

"Hey God, I'm having trouble having faith in you, can you help me?"

He doesn't look down on me.

He wants to help me.

He created me.

He knows me.

My weaknesses.

It's so easy to rely on ourselves.

But it in the end

gets us no where.

He understands.

It's so hard...so hard.

With his help

He does the work

through the Holy Spirit which is in me.

Lord, renew my faith.

Romans 5

1Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. 3Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.
