Excerpt from my devotional this morning at Justin Huffman.org
Humility is submission to God. You may not understand some of the providences unfolding in your life, but you bow down in submission and know God is working his will and accomplishing his purposes. It means believing what God says, accepting what is in His Word and making no attempt to explain it away.
Our nation must humble itself and return to the Father
I'm not saying that your evil for doubting his word. Faith is only blind to those who have not felt the Grace of Jesus in their heart.
Now I'd love to give you an example of faith.
Last summer my grand mother died, a week later my father went to the hospital and should not have made it. They couldn't take his breathing tube out because he kept freaking out. The 3rd attempt I told the doctors that my father would not go back on a tube. So remove it and God will either bring him home or leave him here awhile longer.
I fell to my knees in a field and prayed with every ounce I had. 15 minutes later the hospital called.... my father calmed down and was doing fine.
Now you can brush it up to luck if you like. I know my Father and He knows me. That's all there is to it.
Faith is accepting His control not yours.
There's a difference between faith and blind faith. We aren't discussing faith or God. Only how to trust that the bible is the word. All evidence, all experience, leads me to doubt we have the word in written form. Instead, all evidence leads me to have faith within. And my faith is ringing alarm bells.
I completely understand what you mean. I to struggle with the emotions of its origins and all that alot. When I read the Bible, I read for the guidance I need to move forward in my walk righteously.
There are probably things in the Bible that don't belong.... I do not know. I Trust in the Lord at all times to provide the clarity I need. He always delivers.
All I'm trying to imply
