Fair-Weather Faith

It's easy to follow God in the good times isn't it? It's hard to stick with Him in the hard times. Too often we'd rather become fair-weather fans as it relates to our walk with Christ. God promises that He has a plan for our future, we would just rather He listened to what we wanted the plan to be. Faith isn't faith if it only endures during the easy times. Failure more often than not shows us more about ourselves than success. Christ promises us life abundantly. We just have to believe. God's plan is the best for us. Check out this video to see what I mean. Can't we glorify our Creator in both the good and the bad?

Weekly Scripture

1 Thes. 5:14-19

And we urge you, brothers, warn those who are idle, encourage the timid, help the weak, be patient with everyone. Make sure that nobody pays back wrong for wrong, but always try to be kind to each other and to everyone else. Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. Do not put out the Spirit's fire.

Godbless,

Don't put God in a box. He can and does do more than our limited minds. Just trust him. He is faithful. Pray big.
