To be one with Christ is to have faith, to have faith is to know peace, to know peace is to understand that no matter your struggles, God is mightier than all.
So why is it that no matter how much we think we know who we are in Christ and the mighty God we serve, troubles of the world can still sometimes overtake us? How come having steadfast faith doesn't always stop us from worrying about tomorrow and how we will get through it?
Sometimes I get so overwhelmed with the troubles of tomorrow, and I always ask myself okay, what would it be? Should I be disappointed in myself that as much as God has brought me through, as much as he has done for me, I still don't have enough faith to not be overwhelmed with troubles I know will pass or should I not allow the enemies win by me thinking that I should be perfect when I know I can never be, and being disappointment in myself that I am not holding on to God enough and still worrying. That's the enemy's way of trying to get in my head and put doubt in my relationship with Christ.
Understanding that you can never be perfect except in Christ, is you knowing that being human has its limitations, and that's where God steps in, to carry you into and through places that without his strength you can't go through on your own. Jesus is perfect enough for both of you. Yes, you are still faithful even when you are crying your eyes out about a situation that you believe God has a solution for because God is very much still faithful in every situation.
Having faith requires daily work and refreshment, and to be honest, requires you to be in a space that encourages you to hold on and that no matter what, your faith in Christ will see you through.
So in all honesty, When you ask yourself what would it be, I believe that there are two stages or possibilities of how things will go, God will always set out the path for you, he could either push you through it because he doesn't have the time for you to drag your feet or you would need to take the first step forward for God to take the rest. God will tell you which one is which and when the right time is.
It should always be faith over fear, that's what it would always be for me anyway because without God I am nothing. I can only imagine what life would be like if I had no one to turn to, like what is life without hope? that's what choosing faith is, knowing that God has your back always no matter the storm, you can rest assured that you'll get through it.
With all that being said, all things are working together for your good, YOU ARE GOING TO BE ALRIGHT!!!
