Faith.

This post is in response to Jacobs post about faith. I must agree with a lot of what it said however I must make a few additions to it and give my "opinion" on Faith. I will obviously be using scripture to illustrate my points. 

But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Hebrews 11: 6(NKJV)

This is a verse of scripture that tells us clearly that to achieve our primary goal as Christians, Pleasing God, we must have faith. But what is faith? Faith is seeing what is unseen, is what the bible tells us. And I wholeheartedly agree, however does this mean that faith is destined to always be blind? 

I dont think that it is, its important to understand the difference between what we call faith, and what we call sight. the two work with each other. God reveals himself to us, that is what we mean by sight, we SEE God work in our lives, that is sight. Its when we dont see, or cant feel God working that faith kicks in. without faith its impossible to please God because its like having a marriage without any trust within it. It will definitely fail because of the lack of trust. By enlarge as Christians we have two reasons for our relationship with God to fail, an excess of sin (were all sinful so we will never be without it) or a lack of faith, or sometimes one causes the other. Abstaining of any responsibility by saying, I am sinful therefore there is nothing I can do. I agree that there is nothing that WE can do but JESUS can do it! if you ask him.

If there is any time you need faith, pray and ask Jesus for the faith to get through it.

God Bless.
