When asked, ‘What is your greatest blessing?   What do you say?

Thanksgiving,  we all give a verbal thank-you after the blessing.

My faith is who I am.   When asked, I say, My Faith!   People usually give me a strange look.   Yet, I tell you I could not exist without my faith!

Faith is my reason for living!   Without it my life would not be worth living.   Why?   Simply because it is a living thing!   It gives me my foundation to life.   For life is temporary here on earth.   Whereby, ‘faith is life eternal.’

If the creator wasn’t first, then how could I be?   It is very simple to me.   Others say, family, their job, their new home, etc..Far be it from me to say they are wrong.   The heart of each of us differs.

As we each face and endure th struggles of this life, we all must choose the perspective we wish to keep.   His friendship is what I want.

I know that is what He wants….Friendship!   His friendship to me is absolute.   For no one can do or fulfill the deepest desires within the heart but Him.

To know that He knows,  gives me peace.     I trust His perfect love.    I know first and foremost, that a God that loves me so much that He gave me His Son, so that I may know Him intimatley, is ‘Awsome!’

The God of us all does send us challenges;  there is no doubt about it!

Yet, to remember that He is in charge, waiting to see if we will ask for His ‘help’ is key!    The ‘help’ is given when the ‘prayer’ is offored with depth of heart!   I mean with sincerity, and not arrogance.  With ‘humility’!  For God does not always answer right away, but He does answer.

Sometimes, He will test our faith to see if we will ‘walk’!    For some do walk!    He already knows who is ‘true blue’ and yet, the chance is still given, for God is fair and just!

So, if the ‘crisis’ before you is difficult to endure, then the best answer is to pray for ‘acceptance’ of His will!   This will bring forth peace!

If the ‘hurt’ is so unbearable, then start a prayer chain.   What is a prayer chain?   That friend, is having others pray for your ‘peace’ and well being.   God will anwer!

His delight will shine forth, and the awsomeness of who He is will prevail!   Yet, people turn from God when the trials come.    Remember, Jesus was subjected to the ‘trial’ too!   He does not ask of us anymore than He has already done.

Book of Matthew Chapter 5 verses 3-12 “The Beatitudes”: Jesus Speaks:

3)“How blest are the poor in spirit: the reign of God is theirs.

4)Blest too are the sorrowing: they shall be consoled.

5)(Blest are the lowly; they shall inherit the land)

6)Blest are they who hunger and thirst for holiness; they shall have their fill.

7)Blest are they who show mercy, mercy shall be theirs.

8)Blest are the single-hearted for they shall see God.

9)Blest are the peacemakers; they shall be called sons of God.

10)Blest are those persecuted for holiness’ sake; the reign of God is theirs.

11)Blest are you when they insult you and persecute you and utter every kind of slander against you because of me.

12)Be glad and rejoice, for your reward is great in heaven; they persecuted the prophets the very same way.”
