What do you say when you are asked, “Where’s your faith now that trouble has knocked at your door?” Do you say, “God helps those who help themselves?” Or do you say, “God will help me solve my problems because I trust and love Him?” In all situations, our actions matter more to God than how we think or how intellectual our decisions are.
Jesus was not making fun of us when He said, “With faith the size of a mustard seed, all things are possible with God.” He answers our biggest questions when our faith is at the bottom of the darkest hole and at our worst times. When we totally give our problems to God, He will help us, not in our time, but in His. He reminds us to be still and know that He is.
Do we trust God enough to put the most important things of our lives into His hands, things like our health, our everyday lives, our deaths, and our economic needs? When we do, God sees us as faithful human beings, and He will honor us. Throughout the pandemic, my faith has been tested time and again, but somehow, I have always known that God is by my side. I am slowly walking out of the fog of the past year and a half, and I know that His love and grace have blessed me in many ways. He sees me growing more towards Him than towards myself, and my life has been abundant. The road towards my eternal home is becoming ever more bright. As my faith has grown, so has my love and trust of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Now, more than at any other time in my life, I know that all things are possible with God.
