Why do I believe? Why do I sacrifice alot of things in relentless pursuit of God? of Faith? I know questions such as these are not often welcomed. You're "supposed" to believe, to get it. But truly how many people "get it"??...My response is just more of a declaration...
1) God created me for His purpose (Phillipians 2:13, Jeremiah 29:11).
2) God desires me to be a mature Christian (James 1:4). And in order to attain it, I have to be tested so my Faith that I declare/claim may be proved genuine (Romans 5:3-4, 1 Peter 1:6-7)
3) Faith keeps me in God's grace = God's love and protection (Romans 5:1-2).
4) But most importantly "Without Faith it is impossible to please God" (Hebrews 11:6).
So I will reach, I will strive, I will give...because everything in this world, even our mortal bodies are temporary and transient. But God, the Eternal Father, was, is, and will forever be Sovereign!!! I think there is no other obvious decision... I chose You God and still will... Be praised through Your Son Jesus Christ and Your will made manifest through me. Amen.
