Confession: I want to know everything, be in control. The longer I live I continue to learn this is not the way life works, especially as a Christian.
Faith is a funny thing. The New International Version defines it as something sure, certain. I'm not always sure of everything, so does that mean that I lack faith?
I'm learning that the key to faith is not faith in a decision, or faith in a theological explanation, but faith in God Himself, the One who does not change. I change, my feelings change, I lack full understanding. But God does not change.
Life cannot be packaged in a box. We are finite. That's why "we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known." 1 Corinthians 13:12
Living by faith is moving forward in confidence in God...
