Faith Is Hard Work

by | Oct 7, 2024 | Faith

“And without faith, it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.”

(Hebrews 11:6 ESV)

“So faith comes from hearing and hearing through the word of Christ.”

(Romans 10:17 ESV)

I was watching a show yesterday. The statement was said, “Proof is easy. Faith is hard work.” It was a medical show, and a patient made that statement. It got me to thinking. How many times has something happened to me, and I needed proof. The things may not have been hard to prove; but when it comes to having faith that it would work out, THAT was hard. Yes, I had faith, but I had to keep working on it.

Now, when it comes to having faith. There are times when something small was needed. Faith oozed out. But let something hard come along, and I had to work hard to keep my faith built up. Does that mean that I don’t believe God can do it? Of course not. It’s the devil that is trying to tell me it won’t happen. Those are the times that I have to stand strong against him and fight.

God has our backs, though. He won’t let us go without a fight. So the next time you find your faith low and you’re working hard to build it up, cry out to God. He won’t let you down.

Have a great day, everyone.
