True Faith
Posted on Jan 20, 2008 under Faith |We have come to share in Christ if we hold firmly till the end the confidence we had at first.
Hebrews 3:14
I know a lot of Christians who proclaim their faith. I have no reason to doubt them. I know a number of people, too, who lost faith when things went horribly wrong in their lives. They felt that God had betrayed them or walked away. They question why God would let such a thing happen.
Keeping faith during good times is easy. We praise God for the wonderful things in our lives and keep honoring Him. Keeping faith when things go wrong is not so easy. We tend to blame God. We may cry out to Him, asking why He has forgotten about us. Or we may turn away, angry.
True faith does not falter. No matter what happens, no matter how awful events seem to be, we must remain faithful to God, keeping our sights on Christ and believing that our Lord will never forsake us. We must continue to trust God and rely on His love.
Be faithful to God; He is always faithful to us.
