Faith That Keeps Moving Forward Through Trials

I want to talk about what it means to have faith. When I think of faith, I think of many times in my life where I have struggled and wanted to quit or give up. But I didn’t. I kept moving forward. But the most recent, has been this year learning to fly. You see, when I first decided to take it on, I had no idea where to start. I had instructors fall through, airplanes fail and even started at the wrong place. I could go on, but you get the idea. Then, we had a pandemic hit. It not only could have crushed the dream of flying but it certainly slowed work down. There were times I thought God was telling me this wasn’t what He had in mind for me. But I couldn’t stop. I believed (faith) that this was where I was meant to be and I was going to keep pushing. I was going to persevere. “Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.”James 1:2-3 Well, most of you now know I made it and it’s grown into something I never could have scripted for myself. God’s plan is always greater than mine. James tell us that when we are going through trials that we shouldn’t panic, we shouldn’t freak out or whatever, but that those trails are building something great in us. It’s that perseverance. So whatever your trial, have faith, keep going, because God is up to something amazing for you. Fix you eyes on God, keep moving forward and put your faith to work. Be Nice, Grace WinsFMJ
