The action of faith

We look to judge people by our standards. We use a sliding scale. People like to compare their live to Hitler. If your life is worst then Hitler then you have serious problems.
God will judge our sins. No amount of good deeds can clean the soul.
A person can sin by getting drunk and have issues. Then the person can stop drinking, that person's sins are not forgiven by the good action.
A person needs to realize that everyone is a sinner. We must believe and repent from our sins.
Rahab was living among a culture that was going to be judge. There were Jewish spies in the neighborhood.
She knew the God of the Bible was real. So she protected and helped the spies. She wanted to be right with the Lord. Her action displayed that God was real. She was a hooker, she knew that she was sinner that needed to be forgiven.
A person may be in the sinful culture. That person can leave that culture by receiving a new heart.
A person can believe upon the Lord Jesus and repent from their sins. That person will a new actions and desires.
Our deeds can't save us but it display the change in our hearts. Rahab was saved because of her faith and not he deeds. But good deeds in a believer is because of faith in Jesus.

Hebrews 11:31

By faith the prostitute Rahab, because she welcomed the spies, was not killed with those who were disobedient.

The walls of life

We will have walls of life. The barriers seems so huge and that our lives have no hope.
Israel faced many walls in life. They were going against the city of  Jericho.
They cried to the Lord and the Lord had an interesting plan. They didn't attack the city but walked around the walls of Jericho.
This plan seems crazy for mankind. If you want to win a battle, you must be aggressive.
But the Lord was in control and he wanted the glory.
The issues with all of us is that we will receive success and we don't give credit to the Lord.
This plan would give God the glory.
We must listen to the plan of the Lord and trust in him.
We will not regret life, if we put our everything to the Lord. God desire to strengthen our faith.
God will bring trials to increase our faith.
If a person wants to get physically stronger then that person needs to lift heavy weights.
The problems of our lives will makes us lift, the weight can seem overbearing. We must not live by sight but by faith.
I have my trials and you have your trials. We must go to the Lord and listen to him.
I don't have a solution for your problem but this statement. Go to the Lord.

Hebrews 11:30

 By faith the walls of Jericho fell, after the army had marched around them for seven days.

The impossible can happen

Many people have an idea that the impossible can't happen. We can become very depressed in life. This is a half-truth. The impossible can't happen when we are not align with God, and we do everything in our strength.
There are always situations when there is no hope. So people will kill themselves or let themselves go.
We must not look towards our wisdom but depend on the Lord.
When a person looks for a job, it can seem that there are no jobs. When a person looks for a mate, then it seems that there are no match. When a person have bad health, then it seems that that person will always be sick.
But we must go to God in prayer. Prayer is not magic words that makes God move. Prayer is might to connect our wills towards his will.
If we pray and God wants us to move; therefore, we must go in faith. I need to say this because many Christians don't understand this view point.
Moses was leading Israel down in Egypt. God wanted Moses to leave that country. The only problem is that the Jews had millions of people and the Red Sea was in the way.
So God would part the Red Sea. This is impossible for man but not for God. Moses believed the Lord and the Lord parted the sea.
It wasn't down because of Moses's faith but the power of the Lord. 
The Egyptians tried to walk in the Red Sea but they died.When a person goes against the Lord, then that person will always lose.
It seems that the wicked always win but on Judgement Day, they will lose.
So do you have issues in your life? Go to God in prayer and have an honest heart. I don't know what God will do but submit to him.
The impossible can happen, only when you walk with the Lord.
So firm up your relationship with Jesus. But if you have no relationship with the Lord. Go to the Lord Jesus ask for forgiveness. Then you are on the right path.

Hebrews 11:29

 By faith the people passed through the Red Sea as on dry land; but when the Egyptians tried to do so, they were drowned.

Forever or now

Moses was saved from death.  God saved his life and he was in the house of the leader of Egypt.
Moses was blessed to be in that house but he knew he had a higher calling.
He could have chosen to follow the gods of the Egyptians but he rejected that idea.
Sin looks very good at the time but it is poison to the soul. When a person craves into sin then that weakens the person's life.
Moses heard the voice of the Lord and he followed the voice. I like Moses because he is just like me.
He wanted to serve the Lord but he messed up.
The Lord didn't give up on Moses but he kept on drawing Moses to his side.
We might have times of wandering but the Lord will bring back his people. Moses got back on the horse and he knew the Lord.
We need to reject the sin that seems so pleasurable and follow the Lord's way.
Sin is fun for a second then it kills. But the Lord'w way is forever and blessed is a person that keeps him.
We think that this earth is all there is, but we will leave this planet soon. We either go up or down.
When we face the Lord, someday, then we will be thankful to know him and obey him.

Hebrews 11:24-28

²⁴ By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh’s daughter. ²⁵ He chose to be mistreated along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin. ²⁶ He regarded disgrace for the sake of Christ as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward. ²⁷ By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the king’s anger; he persevered because he saw him who is invisible. ²⁸ By faith he kept the Passover and the application of blood, so that the destroyer of the firstborn would not touch the firstborn of Israel.

Walk by faith

It is true that people need faith. We must look back at God's faithfulness and then we can believe the future.
This are many issues in this life. Some problems seems like they don't have a reason.
But we must look for God for wisdom.
We have heard of Moses. There were an edict to kill all the children. It is true that the followers of  Jesus needs to follow the rules of the land but if it goes against his will then they can break that law.
The believers needs to pay taxes and obey the speed limit but if there is a doctor and the government wants a doctor to perform an abortion.  Then the doctor needs to practice his faith. Or an policy that tells people to denounce Jesus. Then the believer should reject this idea.
Moses parents knew that God had a plan for Moses. The Egyptian government wanted to kill all the Hebrew babies. 
So the parents hid Moses and kept him safe.  God was protecting Moses so he could do God's plan.
Satan wants to destroy the people of God but God will protect his people. His purpose will always happen.
Satan is the current king of this world but God is the Monarch. He only allow somethings that Satan wants.
Satan couldn't touch Moses.
We need to follow the will of the Lord. I don't know why some events happens but we must keep our eyes on Jesus.
We need to be lead by the Holy Spirit. Our faith is based on facts and truth. It is not based on man's current ideas and our feelings.
I am glad that Moses' parents trusted in the Lord.
Put your worries onto the Lord. He will guide you.
My current issue is looking for a job. So I need to trust in the Lord. Then there will be another issue.
So the key is Jesus in control and learning to trust him, even if the situation is crazy.

Hebrews 11:23

  By faith Moses’ parents hid him for three months after he was born, because they saw he was no ordinary child, and they were not afraid of the king’s edict.

Work here but my soul is at home

I work on this earth. I may not like the business of money and numbers. I feel it cheapens people but it is the model that we have.
We need to get a good education and do the steps but work here but the soul should not be at home.
Joseph worked in the world's system and God allowed him to succeeded in every sense.
Joseph knew that his time of death was approaching. So he had his last wishes.
He told his people that they needed to honor the Lord. And when they went to back to the Holy Land, that they should bury his bones there.
He lived in Egypt and he honored the Lord. But Egypt was never home.  He was sold as a slave and went to the south land.
I need to work and do what the Lord wants but my job or money is not my home.
My resting place is in heaven and God. I look forward for the day when I can say my last wishes on this earth.
Joseph focused on the Lord in the good times and the bad times. The trials of his life made him stronger in the Lord. He trusted in the Lord's power and not his wisdom.
The trials of my life will keep me leading me back to Jesus. And when I have only a few days to live, I pray that my life would reflect the word's of Joseph.  
This job lost has made me focus more on God and less on self. This job lost has made me long for heaven and not desire the sinful nature.
My journey of faith is always turning. I don't know what tomorrow will bring but one day, I will say my last words and be with my Lord.

Hebrews 11:22

  By faith Joseph, when his end was near, spoke about the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt and gave instructions concerning the burial of his bones.

Life is more than money and houses

There is nothing wrong with money and houses but we must place God in the first spot of our hearts.
Jacob was giving success while he was living on this planet. God granted him houses and money.
It is important to run a good company or be the best worker but God must be above them.
Jacob on his death bed was not talking how much money he made but he wanted to blessed his grandchildren.
This shows me that God is the most important being. Then we must love and honor people.
A believer can't bring money to heaven but they are rewarded for how much they loved God and people.
Jacob thought his grandchildren were beautiful. He wanted them to knew the Lord.
Jacob then worshiped the Lord. We must be thankful for this life and thank the Lord. We must be honoring the Lord in every area of life.
One day this will happen. We will die then we either go to heaven or hell. The people that believed and repented will go to heaven. Jesus is the only way to heaven.
I hope you realize that God and people are more important than the house or money.

Hebrews 11:21

  By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of Joseph’s sons, and worshiped as he leaned on the top of his staff.

The blessing of God

There is blessings from the Lord. Issac experienced many blessings from above. He would blessed his children. His children could receive the blessing or not.
Esau was the first born so he should have received the spiritual blessing but he rejected the calling. He was not a person that wanted the Lord but he wanted money and earthly things. So he betrayed his calling.
Jacob was not a perfect man but he valued the Lord. He knew the blessing from the first born. So he received the blessing.
Issac passed on the blessing to Issac.
Life is more than making money and having a big house. We must put the Lord first in our lives.
Issac believed in the Lord. Jacob believed in the Lord.
We must claim the gift of God but we must ask for it. There are two type of people. The person that desire the Lord and the person that values materials over the Lord.
It is easy to fall into the trap of money, especially when you are looking for a job or in debt. But we must not love money over God.

  

Hebrews 11:20

 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau in regard to their future.

The idols must go

God will bless us with many good items in life. When we receive the blessing then they can become idols in our lives.
There are occasions when God test our hearts. We need to place our blessings to the Lord. People can have a good job but then that job becomes more important than God. Or a person could have a house. That person could honor the house more than God.
Abraham had a child when he was old. The child was an miracle. God was testing him to see if Abraham had any idols.
God asked Abraham to sacrifice his son. It sounds weird but God knew that it wouldn't happen.
Abraham believed in the Lord and he knew that the Lord knew best.
We need to give everything to the Lord and believe that the Lord knows best. We don't have the mind of God but we must seek after him. We need to trust in the Lord and seek the truth.
Only one should be on the throne. His name is God.
Faith requires the belief that God knows best and we must obey.
I wonder why God blesses us with jobs and then we loss them. Or when we have a loved then they are dead the next day but we must keep our eyes on the prize.

 

Hebrews 11:17-19

 

¹⁷ By faith Abraham, when God tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice. He who had embraced the promises was about to sacrifice his one and only son, ¹⁸ even though God had said to him, “It is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned.”¹⁹ Abraham reasoned that God could even raise the dead, and so in a manner of speaking he did receive Isaac back from death.

My retirement

People can buy a home and raise a family. There is nothing wrong with this concept but God has a bigger plan for people.
We must be lead by the Lord. It is good to look back and see the faithfulness of the Lord but I must keep on going.
This world is not my staying place, but heaven is my staying place. I can't return to the past and move back to the old times. The old times are gone. So I need to walk toward the Lord. I always wonder if I am doing the will of the Lord but the Lord will guide me.
When a person looks for a new purpose, job or career then they wonder if they are doing the right steps.
I don't know if I am walking with the Lord with a perfect heart but I want the Lord to examine my heart.
I haven't always followed the Lord. There was a time when I got tired of my sins and I repent from them.
I believe in the Lord Jesus.
I began a new life in Jesus. He is building a place in heaven for me.
I know this sounds weird but the followers of the Lord are the bride to the Lord. Jesus is the groom.
He is preparing a place for us like the tradition in the Jewish culture.
He is making a nice place for his Bride. It makes me cry when I think of his love towards me.
This world can be cruel towards me but I must focused on the Lord.
I will be faithful everyday to the Lord but one day I will get a promotion in heaven.
Turn your life to Jesus, he is faithful. He will provide for my needs on this earth then I will die and be in heaven.

Hebrews 11:14-16

 

¹⁴ People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. ¹⁵ If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. ¹⁶ Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.

Not happy with this world

I need to be honest. I am not happy with this world. I love people but many will reject the Lord. So there are evil in this world.
I try not to get to comfortable but there are times when I get comfortable. Then the Lord will wake me up and take my hand.
The people in the Bible knew that this world wasn't their home. God kept on changeling and changing his people. They knew that heaven was awaiting. God's people needs to focus on the eternal place. The place is called heaven and God lives there.
I love to learn languages and other cultures so people joke around with me. People have called me Spanish, Chinese or Arabic.
It is true because that I am a foreigner. This world don't share my values.  The older I become, I realize this point even more.
I look forward where my soul can be at rest. Where my soul where is no longer tainted with sin and doubt.
But until I die, I will be a stranger in a strange land. I need my Father to grab my hand and soon I will receive a promotion.

Hebrews 11:13

 All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth.

The impossible can happen

We can think that miracles can't happen. I believe the word miracle can be overused. But I do believe in miracles.
There are times when people get in a serious accident and don't get hurt. That is called an miracle.
Or when a person has cancer one day and is healed of the cancer. That person never took treatment and was healed. The doctors were surprised.
Or when a woman can't get pregnant and the doctors say it is impossible. Then two years later, that woman will have a child.
God can do miracles. He doesn't always work in the way that we want but according to his plan.
Sarah was an old lady and God promised that she would be a mother of many people.
The problem is that she never had a child and she was beyond child-bearing age.
God gave her an child and she became mother of nations.
We must not seek the Lord for items but to know him. He will give us what we need and we need to be content in his working.
He does work miracles but we must seek his presence and not his presents.

 

Hebrews 11:11-12

 

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.

The distant land

Everyone is a nomad. We are in one spot then we are moved on. Changes will always happen so we must keep on going. I believe there is a reason for everything. I may not know the reason at this present age but soon I will.
Abraham was moved around to different places because he believed in God. We must have faith like that in our lives.
We will not work at the same job forever. We will not live at the same house. But we must ask the Lord to guide us.
This earth is not the final stop. There is heaven or hell in the next life. The person will spend eternity in either place when that person dies.
The believer will be in heaven. The believers realized that they are sinners. They will believe and repent from their sins. Then that person is forgiven. Because Jesus is God. Lived a perfect life and died on the cross and then he conquered death.
If a person refuse to follow the Lord and repents. Then that person will pay for their sins. Then that person will pay for their sins in hell. God doesn't want anyone to go to hell but it depends on the person.
My life isn't perfect. I wish some events never occurred but the Lord is preparing for his work on this earth.
I know that this fact. I will die and God is building a place for me. There is my hope and I will not regret following Jesus.

Hebrews 11:8-10

 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.

Obedience

We need obedience. This word is interesting. We need to hear an instruction and do the mission.
This requires faith in the purpose.
Noah heard the voice of the Lord. He followed the plan to save mankind. So he built on boat so his family and friends could be in when the earth would get flooded.
Noah built this boat for a long time. People thought he was crazy but he knew that God was serious.
We must be steadfast to the Lord's plan, even if it seems crazy.
There are many times when God place me on a path. The path seems to have dead ends but I must keep my faith in him.
I know this is true through all the years of being a follower of Jesus, I plan but the Lord will interrupt and do what he wants for my life.
I am learning to trust in the Lord. I am not there yet but I will remain faithful to the Lord.

 

Hebrews 11:7

 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.

The key to life

People wonder about the key to life. We think of getting an education. Education is important to get a job. But it is not the key to life.
People think relationships are the key to life. So they focus on people. They are close but they forget about one person.
We forget about God. We need to believe in the Lord. He formed us in our mothers' wombs.
We can't please the Lord, if we don't acknowledge him. We must rely on him in the good times and the bad times.
God will reward the people that seek him. God will grow our faith in life. He uses the blessing and so called curses. We must keep honoring the Lord. I don't know why bad things happenings in my life but I trust in the Lord.
He will reward me, if I keep my eyes on him. We need faith to make it through this life. This life is difficult but God will help us if we cry out to him.
If you don't have a personally relationship with Jesus. Then you need to realize that you are a sinner.
You need to believe in God and repent from your sins. He died on the cross and arose from the dead.
We must follow him and deny our sinful nature.
Since, I am looking for another job,  I will keep on trusting in the Lord. He has a plan for me and I will be amazed with what he will do.

Hebrews 11:6

 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.

This earth is not my home

I can be wrapped up in the world. We can be unemployed, marriage problems, money issues and other issues. So we only focus on the problems. We need to deal with our issues and not ignore them.
We need to focus on the Lord and allow him to guide us. Life will always have problems but we must rely on the Lord.
Enoch was the taken from this earth and went to heaven. He never died. The other person is Elijah.
He had an relationship with the Lord. He desired to please the Lord.  The Lord sees the human desire.
I don't know why God took him away but he did.
Enoch got a promotion from this world. Don't get me wrong, I love life but I desire to be with the Lord in heaven.
I will be faithful to the Lord like Enoch while I am living on this earth. The Lord will reward us when we are faithful. He wants to bless people.
I believe that we must keep our eyes on Jesus.

 

Hebrews 11:5

 By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience death: “He could not be found, because God had taken him away.” For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God.

The better offer

We offer our lives everyday. We have choices in easy and difficult times. We must make good plans and follow them.
God has a plan for everyone so we are accountable to him. He wants an relationship with him.
If a person don't have relationship with Jesus then that person needs to get right with him.
Everyone has sinned and one sin separates from the Lord. We need to believe and repent from our sins.
Jesus died on the cross and arose from the dead. He conquered death and he is the only way to heaven.
If a person truly repents then that person have a new spirit.
That person needs to honor the Lord in their life. God sees the heart. If a person is not giving their heart then the Lord will know. He knows everything.

Hebrews 11:4

 By faith Abel brought God a better offering than Cain did. By faith he was commended as righteous, when God spoke well of his offerings. And by faith Abel still speaks, even though he is dead.

The beginning

Many people will say that the universe was an accident by chance. They say that God is not real because science proves that God doesn't exist.
These people have faith because they were not there when the universe began.
Nothing is now coming into existence or going out of existence; matter and energy may be converted one into the other, but there is no net increase in the combined total of what exists.
The law of is also referred as the law of conservation, which means that all matter and energy is the universe is being conserved. Based on this universal law and energy could not have created themselves.
There is no know scientific process for how matter could come into existence from nothing. This means the evolutionists rely on faith that the origin of matter somehow came into existence through some natural materialistic process.
The human DNA is more complex than the computer information. Many people will say that it just happened but someone had to programmed the computer. So someone had to programmed man's DNA.
We will have faith in something. We will have faith in no God or God. It takes more faith to believe in Evolution.
 God made the earth. Faith is based on real evidence. When I see the creation, I know that God created everything because it is so complex.
We need to go to the manual for help. God has a manual for mankind.
It is called the Bible. People have tried to disprove the Bible. But they haven't so do your research.
The Dead Sea Scrolls have the same words as today's Bible. So this proves the Bible.
We can read the Bible and understand the truth of life.
If God made me then he can be known. Sin separates us from the Lord in the beginning in Genesis.
So Jesus came to the earth as the God-man. He lived a perfect life and died on the cross. A perfect person had to take the place of a guilty party.
He arose from the dead and conquered death. We must believe and repent. We must follow the Lord. Jesus.
Jesus can bring redemption to a soul.  God knows how to guide a person to get a new job, found a job, help with money issues and in friendship.
We must believe in the Lord as the Maker that loves us. He took our pain and sins upon the cross so we can know him. He will provide salvation and the needs of our lives. We must be humble and be guided by him.

Hebrews 11:3

  By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.

They didn't know

People read the Bible. We assume that the people of the Bible knew the plans of the Lord. They didn't but they knew that God was faithful. They were not perfect but they followed the Lord.
God has a plan for everyone. Man plans his way but God directs his steps.
No one works the same job for their lifetime, lives in the same house 'til their death and life will always change.
We must confirm to the Lord Jesus. God doesn't want us be the same. We don't like change but when we have stress then we will rely on the Lord even more.
I worked for two places in my life and I will add a third company. So I am looking at every angle.
I don't know where the Lord is leading me but I will be faithful.
This is a life lesson for me. Life is always changing and I need to do the will of the Lord.
I don't know the future. But I desire the blessings of every trials that will occur.
When I thought to myself, I thought I would be never in this state. But God is in control.
I always ask the Lord to give and take away.
I don't have the mind of God so I will not be angry with my Lord.
The Lord will keep on blessing me and I need to count my blessings.
So ask the Lord to guide you, he will give and take away. So don't be angry with Lord.

Hebrews 11:1-2

 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. ² This is what the ancients were commended for.

Don't worry

People always say to people don't worry. I have done this many times. It is an easy statement but when we have trials then we will worry.
We view trials as a bad thing. I need to be honest, I say trials are good but my heart disagrees.
I want life to be easy but God doesn't work in that process.
God brings trials so we can rely on him and less on our pride and idols.
Looking for a job is not easy and the unemployment statements scares me. But God will give me wisdom in what to do.
What trials are you facing? We must rely on  the Lord on the good and bad times.
I don't know why a person have cancer, loss their jobs or a death of a loved one but God is in control and we must follow him.
The trials shows what type of person who we are. We are weak and God is strong.

Matthew 6:25-34

 

²⁵ “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? ²⁶ Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? ²⁷ Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life^[a]?
²⁸ “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. ²⁹ Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. ³⁰ If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? ³¹ So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ ³² For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. ³³ But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. ³⁴ Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Don't know where to go

There are times in life when we don't know where to go. There are times when we doubt ourselves.
Then where do we go? I still have a broken heart from being laid-off. I am seeking what the Lord wants for my life.
I don't have a clue so I am praying to the Lord for guidance. I read the Bible so I have words full of wisdom.
We will hear words that will kill our souls but we must rely on the Lord.
When we don't trust in ourselves then we have the strongest faith. It is interesting point in my life, I don't feel the Lord but I know he is guiding me.
I don't know where you are at in life. We will face difficult times, we need to depend on the Lord.
When trials happen then a person fruits will be displayed.

Proverbs 3:5-7

 

⁵ Trust in the Lord with all your heart
    and lean not on your own understanding;
⁶ in all your ways submit to him,
    and he will make your paths straight.

⁷ Do not be wise in your own eyes;
    fear the Lord and shun evil.

The new journey

We all have plans so we act upon our desires. We go to school to receive an education, then we begin to work in our fields.
Every step of life is uncomfortable when we don't have a clear path. When we got on a road then we begin to comfortable.
Many times, we get comfortable then we receive a curve ball. We receive cancer, a death of loved one or we loss our jobs, then we have to go to another area of life of uncertainty.
I am beginning this blog to encourage people in hard times.
I was comfortable and my schedule was set. I took a vocation for Christmas then I went back to work. There were two people that asked me to an office. They informed me that I was laid-off.
I was surprised because I had a good review in November.
I had to clear my mind and I filled for unemployment. I had a job for a while but it is scary not to have a job.
I want to help people that are having a hard time in life.
I would not choose this path but I am not in control. God is in control, he will not give me what I can't bear.
The trials of life should bring us back to the Lord. This trial is making me to trust in the Lord's goodness.
The Lord doesn't want to harm me but transform me to be like Jesus. If you have an relationship with Jesus then give all your life to him. If you don't have a relationship with him then believe and repent.
We are sinners and we need to be cleanse in the soul. So Jesus lived a perfect life and died on the cross. He arose from the dead. If we reject our pride and sin and follow Jesus then God will give us new life.

1 Corinthians 10:13

No temptation  has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted  beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
