As many of us know, "faith is the substance of things hoped for, and the evidence of things unseen". Yes, most people that grew up in church (or around people that went to church), know that verse in the bible. But how many of us actually live by this faith that we claim to know so much about? Faith is not a destination, its a path. It's not a goal, it's a process. And in this process, we will have tests.
TESTS?
Yes. Tests are the very things that build our faith, and make the blessing at the end more worth it. But whenever we are more caught up into the blessing, we lose focus on the process; which is the most challenging part of the path. Tests never come to tear you down, kill you, or show you how much God isn't there for you. They actually prove how much God is there for you. They come to strengthen your faith, build character, and teach us lessons.
We ask God for faith, but we just don't understand that there's a process to everything. We want a husband/wife, but there's a preparation process. We want patience, but there's irritating process. We want faith, but there's a sacrificial process. We must first be willing. We must be willing to go through the process, even if it requires us giving up something that we love dearly.
DON'T GIVE UP
Once we start this walk of faith, it can be exciting and fun...until people you walk long enough to look around to see that everyone that were with you, are't with you anymore. We begin to go through things and don't really have anyone to talk to, because they just wouldn't understand. We want to give up. We want to drop the very mission that God has us on because things aren't as fun and exciting anymore. Those old places are calling our name again, and it would be so easy and convenient to turn back. But don't abort.
DON'T ABORT!
God has something so great in store for you, if you continue on this walk of faith. I know the very people that you trusted in this process is making things so difficult; but don't abort! Keep walking. God has you here for a purpose. It might not be recognizable right now, but keep walking. Keep trusting God on this faith walk, and you WILL reap if you don't faint.
