Faith in our God...

"What is faith?" My Sunday school teacher asked today, "faith is believing and trusting in something even if you can't see it." He said.

Today I went to Sunday school and the sermon was on having faith in God.
"Wow! I never knew there is so much in having faith in something!" I thought after the sermon was over.
Here I want to share these powerful things with you today that I thought stuck out to me. Someone (don't remember who) wrote this and it was in our Sunday school papers today.
"worry is an indication that we think God cannot look after us." WOW! Did you read that?! I had no idea that worry is an indication of thinking God cannot look after us! "Now that I think of it, I worry all the time!" I thought to myself.
So that means I don't have much faith and trust in our All Mighty God. I barely know how to write this out and put it on my blog here! So just bare with me okay!? =)
Before I go on I want to tell you something, it might sound like every time I write about God on here it sounds like I'm trying t preach to you. I don't at all mean this to sound like that! I'm sharing from my heart and that is it! I'm not trying to make you feel like I'm trying to get this in your head. so just understand!

So what I'm saying is when I worry about what is going to happen in the future or what ever I'm not truly putting my faith and trust in God but rather myself.
I have never thought of that until my Sunday school teacher spoke about it.
But if I put ALL my faith and trust in GOD NOT MYSELF look where I would be?!
I would not be worrying about everything! Isn't that amazing!
Who says I need to control what is going to happen in my life? NO! God is the Creator and is in control! So i think I'll just stay little me and let Him do what He needs t do how about.
We read some good Bible verses on faith and trust today and I think I'll share them with you! First there is Matthew 6:25-30

(Matthew 6:25-30 ESV)
"Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you eat and drink, nor about your body, what will you put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to
his span life? And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Okay do you understand that verse? It's kinda hard to understand but if you really think about what it is trying to say you will understand.
God saying why be worried about your life? He is in control!
And why worry about what you are wearing? Life isn't about fashion but rather about giving the glory to God! I hope you understanding this Bible verse better when I help explain it =) It took me a long time to figer what what this verse had to do with trust and faith.
Another good Bible verse on this subject of faith is Philippians 4:6 (ESV)
The Lord is at hand; do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I like that verse too! I like that it's talking about you don't have to be worried about anything and if you are take it to God and tell Him your feelings.
There is one last Bible verse I would like very much to share with you it is

James 1:6 (ESV)
But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.

That is true indeed. When I'm worried I'm like a wave in the sea following to flow of the wind.

Well, I hope I have encouraged you to know to not be worried! God is here and is in control! I didn't write this post to put a doubt trip on you but to encourage you dear readers!

~You Are Loved~ - Josh Groban.

Don't give up, it's just the wait of the world, when your heart's heavy I, I will lift it for you.
Don't give up, because you want to be heard. If silence keeps you I, I will break it for you.

Everybody wants to be understood. Well, I can hear you. Everybody wants to be loved. Don't give up. Because you are loved.

Don't give up. It's just the hurt that you hide. When your lost inside, I, I'll be there to find you. Don't give up. Because you want to burn bright.
If darkness blinds you, I, I shine to guide you.

Everybody wants to be understood. Well, I can hear you. Everybody wants to be loved.
Don't give up. Because you are loved. You are loved.

Don't give it's just the wait of the world. Don't up, everyone needs to be heard! You are loved.
- Josh Groban.
This song is one of my favorites by Josh Groban.
If you listen to the first song on my playlist on this blog this song will be playing by Josh Groban. I really like this song because the words are great to remember when you feel like the world's wait is heavy on you just like the song says, and it's good to remember that you are loved. I know I probably say that you are loved a lot, but you know, it's good to be reminded that every so often! Because I know it's easy to think that no one loves you and you have no friends. But you do!
You have Jesus Christ to be your friend! He will NEVER leave you! So remember dearest readers God is here and is your friend!
You are welcome to email me at here4reachingout@gmail.com if you have a prayer request or want to just have someone listen to what you have to say i will listen. For like I say a lot, I'm ALWAYS here for all who is on my blog! Even if you're not a follower please don't wait to email me if you need to talk to someone about your hurt inside.
I feel like you might not trust me because you have never met me in person, but dear readers, truly I am a trust worthy person, I would not lie! And I would not tell people of your hurt or prayer request. Your words would only be between you me and God. And I mean what I say too!
God bless you dearest people!

North & South...

Okay, I love the movie "North & South". We just finished watching it and I felt like I didn't want it to end! Us girls in the house have been in the mood for movies in the Jane Austen era. So that is why we watch the new "Emma" and now North and South.
I think North & South is on the top of my favorite list of all the movies from that era. I think every good movie I watch from that era I'll say it's my favorite =) Who knows! No, I haven't seen "Little Dorrit" yet. I do want to see it though!
I'm sure it is a good movie! Well, I believe it is time for me depart sadly =( But I will post again soon I'm sure!
God Bless you on your journey towards Him!
