No, I mean real, honest to goodness faith, the kind that moves God in your direction. I’m not talking about the kind of faith some people throw around like it’s some mystical notion. Whether it’s car trouble, the loss of a job, a serious diagnosis, or issues with our kids, it’s our faith that helps us endure. When unexpected troubles occur, our faith is all we have to lean on.
Faith of the centurion full#
All we knew was that we were suddenly without transportation, and we had not been planning to make any major purchases, which meant we had to scramble quickly to find financing.ĭid I panic? You bet! How were we going to find thousands of dollars we didn’t have? There was only one thing we could do - pray! It was time to turn our faith full frontal toward God. No one was hurt, thank the Lord, but we still don’t know why it spontaneously ignited. I had the same faith in our car when my family and I were going out to dinner recently, but when we walked out the front door we saw the engine on fire!įortunately, my husband saw the fire before it grew too large and he managed to put it out with a fire extinguisher. Then there’s faith that things will work when we turn them on like the air conditioner, the faucet, and the washing machine.
So much in life requires some measure of faith, doesn’t it? We have faith our kids will stay healthy, faith we’ll still have a job on Monday, and that we can keep all the plates spinning. But only speak a word, and my servant will be healed.” Matthew 8:8 “Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof.
