I'm constantly amazed at how God speaks to us. I have always said we only need to open our "ears" to hear what He has to say to us. If you really stop and open up your "ears" you realize His messages are all around. We've just failed to listen in the right way.
So what do I mean by all of this? Well recently I've really struggled with having faith in the entire situation. Strange because there are a some some good signs and only a few negative signs. It can go either way and a lot depends on me. Specifically me having faith in the right thing and not acting out on immediate emotion but stepping back and acting rationally and with faith.
I have always struggled like many people with faith. It's hard to just throw it all to faith, very, very hard. So I often ask for signs which is another way of not having full faith. Well God spoke to me last night and the message was loud and clear, have faith in Him. I sat down to prepare for my Sunday School lesson. I help teach high school and haven't been there the last several weeks. As I began to look at the materials the lesson was about seeking out signs and putting faith into good luck charms. Recently I have been asking God for a lot of signs. Well He's giving me a full tilt lesson in faith right now!! And He's given me signs too that I have failed to see.
So my prayer today is of thanks, thanks for Him having faith in me even when my faith in His has faltered.
