“Faith is saying I choose to believe in you, God, more than this or that tragedy. I throw myself in utter dependence on you-you alone, a God who specializes in resurrections, a God who brings hope to the hopeless, a God who is a father to the fatherless, a God who was willing to send your Son to a cross to prove you are more powerful than the worst thing evil could do”
- Pete wilson
Wish I believed that more than I do. God I know you have my heart and know it better than I do. I know that right now you seem to be unfaithful, unloving, unjust, and distant because of the circumstances I stand in. My heart is burdened beyond measure but I’m trying to choose to know that my circumstances seem to say one thing about you but time and time again your character has proven to be opposite of what I perceive in the present. I know that your character is always faithful, all-loving, unbelievably just, and near to the brokenhearted.
I want to trust your character and not what my circumstances say about you. Help me.
