Hebrews 11:6-12 New International Version (NIV)
6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.
7 By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear built an ark to save his family. By his faith he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness that is in keeping with faith.
8 By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going.9 By faith he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise. 10 For he was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God. 11 And by faith even Sarah, who was past childbearing age, was enabled to bear children because she considered him faithful who had made the promise. 12 And so from this one man, and he as good as dead, came descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore.
BY FAITH ~
Men and women continue to do things that seem impossible. Just knowing that God's plan unfolds from the in the past and they are examples of our now helps me. Read the complete chapter of Hebrews 11 when you have time. People who trust God in all their hearts still go through things. Good things and hard things happens to each of us. Nobody is perfect and everybody needs forgiveness of things. I love how God not only forgives our sin, but we forgets it. A brand new me and a brand new day. It is people who bring up your past or things you did. Just knowing God totally forgives is necessary at times of our lives. I choose to live by faith because I know that greater is ahead of me, my family and you. God's word is true and amen. Making it final and we can rest in that.
Whatever you are facing today, you are not alone. God hears the cry of your heart, the praise of your lips and have purpose this day for you. My prayers continue for you, your family and friends. I have learned to rejoice with those happy, cry with those who mourn and be there in all seasons of life for others. I value the lives that are there for me too. We need each other in life and are not alone. Our thoughts are powerful and keep them positive. Purpose this a good day.
