1001 我會賜給你信心

1001 我會賜給你信心

你蒙召並不是要獨自走這條道路,我與你同在。我要為你生命中的每一天傾倒恩典,當你軟弱疲憊、難以相信時,不要讓仇敵用罪疚來折磨你。只要帶着謙卑痛悔的心來到我面前,我就會幫助你。將你自己完全交給我,以我話語的真理為筵席,我必挑旺你信心的火焰。

如果我沒有預料到你會有懷疑的時刻,我就不會鼓勵你去信。相信你所看不見的,並不總是容易。如果容易,就不需要信靠,也不需要倚靠我。信心令我喜悅——即使是有時搖擺不定,隨後卻奔向我尋求恩典的信心。你是我的珍寶,是我所揀選的。你聽見我在輕聲對你說鼓勵的話嗎?靠近我的同在,我會把你從不信和懼怕的捆綁中拯救出來。當你覺得迷失時,我會找到你。我會用盼望使你重新得力,並堅固你。我白白地賜給你再次相信的勇氣,來領受吧。

若沒有信心住在我們裡面,要討神喜悅就是不可能的。因為我們憑着信心來到神面前,知道祂是真實的,並且祂賞賜那些全心全意地尋求祂之人的信心。——希伯來書 11:6

1001 I will give you faith.

You are not called to walk this road alone. I am with you. I want to pour out grace for each day of your life. When you’re weary and have trouble believing, don’t let the enemy torment you with guilt. Simply come to me with your humble and contrite heart, and I will help you. Give yourself to me fully. Feast on the truth of my Word, and I will fan the flames of faith.

If I didn’t expect that you’d have moments when you’d doubt, I wouldn’t have encouraged you to have faith. Believing what you cannot see isn’t always easy. If it were, it wouldn’t require trust. It wouldn’t require dependence on me. Faith pleases me–even faith that sometimes wavers but then runs to me for grace. You are my treasure, my chosen one. Do you hear me whispering words of encouragement? Lean in to my presence. I will rescue you from the bondage of unbelief and fear. I will find you when you feel lost. I will refresh you with hope and strengthen you. I freely give you the courage to believe again. Come and receive.

Without faith living within us it would be impossible to please God. For we come to God in faith knowing that he is real and that he rewards the faith of those who give all their passion into seeking him. –HEBREWS 11:6
