Just me trying to be honest with God.

"Faith is not believing that God can. It is knowing that God will." - Ben Stein

There are things I believe I have trouble believing. For instance, I believe in God’s promise to provide, but I still find myself worrying whether He will. Some call this a head belief instead of a heart belief. I have similar struggles when rock climbing. I know in my head that I am secure by a rope and harness, yet I still have butterflies every time I go over the edge of a cliff. Faith may start with the mind, but we must act and trust our faith to the rope, if you catch my meaning. Even then, it may take some time for our feelings to follow. “Lord I believe, help my unbelief.”  Mk. 9 Conversations Within” ts 1/6/2016
