My Weak Walk

I have not been blogging on this blog since April. I guess that is how weak my walk with God has been these few months.

God is with me always, I guess I just have not served him. I sought after HIM when I am in need. I believe He is watching out for me always. I am thankful, give praise when I pray but mostly I am asking God for forgiveness. Forgiveness for all things I have done (but done wrongly) and forgiveness for things I have not done (but should be doing).

But God is Good, and God is ever ready to lift my spirits and guide me. He may not answer the question directly but he will answer in his own time. Meanwhile, I just have to be faithful.

I seldom read the bible but I do read whenever I can and hopefully I don't fall asleep. Morever, I often wonder, what it meants when the words jump out at you.

In a rare occasion yesterday, the words did jump out at me and I am assured. God has answered and it restores and strengthens me.

Acts 14:8-10
8 In Lystra there sat a man crippled in his feet, who was lame from birth and had never walked. 9 He listened to Paul as he was speaking. Paul looked directly at him, saw that he had faith to be healed 10 and called out, "Stand up on your feet!" At that, the man jumped up and began to walk.

What God told me through this scripture - A man who has been lame from birth and yet had enough faith that God healed him. And now me...who is able and have so much more, how can my faith be so low? I must have faith that God has prepared something good for me and I must have faith that I will receive and God will answer my prayers.

Thank you Lord. I am glad and I will have faith. Continue to guide me!
