Your Story of Faith

If anyone has a story they would like to share about how their faith got them through something, I would love to see it.  Please feel free to comment to share it!

It Was Faith...

Hebrews 11:8-9 (GNT) "It was faith that made Abraham obey when God called him to go out to a country which God had promised to give him.  He left his own country without knowing where he was going.  By faith he lived as a foreigner in the country that God had promised him.  He lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who received the same promise from God."

It Was Faith...

Hebrews 11:7 (GNT) "It was faith that made Noah hear God's warnings about things in the future that he could not see.  He obeyed God and built a boat in which he and his family were saved.  As a result, the world was condemned, and Noah received from God the righteousness that comes by faith."

It Was Faith...

Hebrews 11:5 "It was faith that kept Enoch from dying.  Instead, he was taken up to God, and nobody could find him because God had taken him up."

It was Faith that Made Abel...

Hebrews 11:4 (GNT) "It was faith that made Abel offer to God a better sacrifice than Cain's. Through his faith he won God's approval as a righteous man, because God Himself approved of his gifts.  By means of his faith Abel still speaks, even though he is dead."

To Have Faith

Hebrews 11:1-2 (GNT) "To have faith is to be sure of the things we hope for, to be certain of the things we cannot see. It was by their faith that people of ancient times won God's approval."

Your Loyalty and Constant Love (God's Love)

Do Not Start Worrying (no worries)

Matthew 6:31-34 (GNT) "So do not start worrying: Where will my food come from? or my drink? or my clothes? (These are the things the pagans are always concerned about.)  Your Father in Heaven knows that you need all these things.  Instead, be concerned above everything else with the Kingdom of God and with what He requires of you, and He will provide you with all these other things. So do not worry about tomorrow; it will have enough worries of its own.  There is no need to add to the troubles each day brings."

All The Good Things I Have Come From You

Psalm 16 (A Prayer of Confidence) (GNT) "Protect me, O God; I trust in You for safety.  I say to the Lord, 'You are my Lord; all the good things I have come from You.  How excellent are the Lord's faithful people!  My greatest pleasure is to be with them.  Those who rush to other gods bring many troubles on themselves. I will not take part in their sacrifices; I will not worship their gods.  You, Lord, are all I have, and You give me all I need; my future is in Your hands.  How wonderful are your gifts to me; how good they are!  I praise the Lord, because He guides me, and in the night my conscience warns me.  I am always aware of the Lord's presence; He is near, and nothing can shake me.   And so I am thankful and glad, and I feel completely secure, because You protect me from the power of death, and the one You love You will not abandon to the world of the dead.  You will show me the path that leads to Life; Your presence fills me with joy and brings me pleasure forever."

I Have Come In Order That You Might Have Life

We Never Become Discouraged

2Corinthians 4:16-18 (GNT) "For this reason we never become discouraged...And this small and temporary trouble we suffer will bring us tremendous and eternal glory, much greater than the trouble.  For we fix our attention, not on things that are seen, but on things that are unseen.  What can be seen lasts only for a time, but what cannot be seen lasts forever."

The Lord says, "Watch For the New Things"
