Faith ? My story Now everyone has a story. My story is about my journey with God the struggle the complexity and the will to love others. Now but there is a certain story that makes my life sad but to be truthful my life was redeemed through Christs compassion for me. Since I lost my mum, life has been hard but I know that God is there for the broken hearted. Psalm 77:2 When I was deep in trouble I searched for you lord hb. All night I prayed, with hands but my soul was not comforted. Psalm 22:1 My God, my God why have you abandoned me? Why are you so far away when I groan for help? Jesus went through pain on the cross that made us well. But when Christ redeemed us through his blood it just had a certain feeling to it. But when he was resurrected he gave us life a new creation for anyone who would open the door for him. So Faith is very important it means to trust Christ and the plan he has for you. When my mum passed away I listened to a song which is very important to me There will be a day Jeremy Camp. Faith lifted me up trusting in him that he will deliver us and the thoughts I had about this song there will be a day is a reference to Jesus second coming revelation 21:4 He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death no more sorrow or crying or pain. All these things are gone forever. So faith that I trusted in God to be with me every day and he has redeemed my life! Philipians 4:13 For I can do everything through Christ who gives me strength. Trust and action and a will to live for God. Part 2 Faith and prayer When you pray you should pray with honesty and I mean brutal honesty. Thinking reflecting on life ask God what he wants you to do. Jesus would pray for hours. Prayer is being reflective its be open you never stop asking the question what can I do right here and now. Faith is the essence of the Christian faith without it we are nothing. Whatever things I ask when I pray, I believe that I receive them, and I will have them. Mk 11.24 God is loving responsible and creative this is the image he created us in yet we do not have enough emunah in him faith is seeing not just believing acting on the works he did for us and taking into our hearts. All he wants is our hearts. Faith is the essence of doing God’s action.

Bible references Matthew 14: 22-33, Deuteronomy 32:47, Matt 6:30, Matt 16:5, 2 Corinthians 5:7, 2 Corinthians 4:18

Part 2 Now all my life I have always been asking questions why am I here? And I have always asked the question where is God when I am broken hearted? He is there but I don’t notice him.
