Faith Words: Walk Toward the Light
Seems like everybody is having one kind of trouble or another. Job loss, sickness, accidents, moves, death, pain. If we let them, these troubles can become the focus of our lives. So what can we focus besides our troubles?
Just like the early church, we can focus on the goal of our faith - the salvation of our souls. We can remind ourselves that these troubles are temporary and they help refine our faith.
But rather than just focus on ourselves or our reward, how about we focus on God? He's making it all work out for the good of those who love Him, right?
Have faith, dear ones. Set your minds on things above. Remember the joy that is before you. Walk toward the Light.
Faithfully,
Patrice
1 Peter 1:21 (NIV)
Through Him, you believe in God, who raised Him from the dead and glorified Him, and so your faith and hope are in God.

I am laid low in the dust; preserve my life according to your word.
so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God.
I lift up my eyes to the mountains - where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.
Praise the Lord, my soul and forget not His benefits --
who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases...
