Hey God....
Today my little sister shared that her and our friend Mak had been having an online conversation and they talked about how they were amazed that my faith is strong.
Well, I just want to tell you, Heavenly Father, that I am not amazed by my faith. It's a gift from you and the Holy Spirit. I know I didn't do anything to deserve it on my own. What I am amazed by is you. How perfectly you love me. How tenderly you care.
God, you truly are an awesome God. Sometimes I can't believe you put with me, and even more than that, that you love me in the rockiest of times. You are so good. You are so loving.
My hope is that people know that this faith that you have given to me is a gift...Out of love, you chose me, and I am eternally grateful. There is so much that I don't understand but one thing I know and trust is that you love me. Oh Lord, it doesn't always make sense, but I love you for it.......because I trust you. I know you know what you are doing.
You are so good. You are so great. Thank you for Jesus. Thank you for giving me life and for sustaining me. Thank you for caring for me and loving me.
I am so indebted to you.
When I think about you, everything else pales in comparison. The struggles seem so small when you are so big. I feel so weak but you are so strong. I am secure with you. You are so great and majestic that all that is wrong suddenly doesn't matter in your presence. How I love you, Lord.
Love,
Shannon
Faith is truly a gift from God...I admire the faith that you've been growing in with Him and how your relationship is with Him...
ReplyDeleteI admire you and everything that you are of God. It really is evident how much you love God and are willing to put everything forth to Him. People need to be more like you in that way. I pray for you and others, plus myself to be more like this and followers of Christ.
I love you Shannon. Blessings to you.
