TRUST HIM

"But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him."

Hebrews 11:6 King James Version

We can teach, preach, sing, write, give to charity, and do all other good things, but unless we believe God then all this is in vain. God is not impressed with our titles, our education, our homes, our boats, or our money. What pleases Him is how much you and I trust Him and what we do to show Him that we trust Him.

We need to check out our faith level. What is the temperature of our faith today; is it hot or cold? Are we earnestly seeking Him above everything and everyone? Is He first priority in our lives?

Many times we grow weary serving Jesus because of the criticism and sarcasm that we receive from people. We need to remember that people also criticized Jesus and was sarcastic to Him. He also grew weary in His Heart of being hurt.

Even today, we are being sarcastic and criticizing Jesus when we say these devastating, cruel words to one another. It breaks the Heart of Jesus when we hurt one another. How is your faith level today? Are you trusting Jesus for everything?
