Faithless,Faithful






As I was doing bible study this morning this verse from 2 Timothy stood out.  If you are faithless, He is faithful. Think about it.... How many  people do you know will remain faithful to you when you are faithless?

What does faithless mean?
2. not trustworthy; unreliable.
3.without trust or belief.
4.being without religious faith.
 
So in other words we don't trust God, we don't believe in His Word, and we find no peace in trials in Christ. Yet, though as His children, we display this behavior towards Him, He remains faithful. 
I found myself asking; why? Why remain faithful to a people who are faithless?  
 
We often try to label God with human characteristics, but He is not human. So He is able to do more and above what we can imagine. He is what we can not be, and He does what we can not do. 
 
He is faithful when we are faithless. 
 
He loves when we dont love. 
 
He is strong when we are weak. 
 
He is wise when we are fools. 
 
As much as I would love to try to understand how such a Mighty and Holy God can remain faithful to a faithless people, remain faithful to this faithless soul, I will never truly understand in my finite mind an infinite mind. 
 
 
Thank you Lord that you are Holy and Mighty and always faithful to this desperate soul.

BFS #124 - The Easy Button

Assignment - This week I would like you to post any prayer requests you have. What is going on in your life that you need prayer warriors for? When this assignment came through I was going to share  prayer request for a much needed rental home, and new job for my beloved, but in a blink of an eye those things were no longer a concern. A truly serious, and sobering matter occurred. I was not sure how to share with all of you this matter- and how desperate I was. I was not sure how to even lift my eyes towards heaven for fear that he would not hear me, or not even want what I was wanting.  I was not sure I could handle a loss of my child. My baby- my eldest- He is 18 years old, 6 days ago he started to develop these sharp pains that would shoot to the back of his eyes. At first he described them as a headache, but he realized it was not headache, and started to complain more of the pain, and stated that pain relievers were not working. I made a doctors appointment. When the do...

Traditions…

At this time of the year everyone is filled with traditions. Things they do every year  to prepare their hearts to celebrate the greatest, and truest meaning of this season- celebrating the Birth of our Savior. We are no exception.. we started this tradition last year. Our hearts were to focus ourselves completely on what we are celebrating and why we are celebrating it so every evening, we light these candles…   gather around the table to read the scripture for the night, we sing the corresponding carol/hymn, then daddy reads a story. The story normally goes with which every figure we must pull and set up for our nativity scene. So far this is what we have out: The Donkey was first- because he carried Mary to Bethlehem, then the cow- was probably in the stable, the sheep were probably brought by the Shepherds who came to see the Savior, and then the Shepherd. This scene is such a humbling scene, one that reminds us that our Lord did not arrive in a mansion, or place b...
