How do you keep the roof from caving in when your world falls apart?
It all starts on the firm foundation of faith.
Pillars of our Faith: those things that keep the roof from caving in when the world around us is falling apart.
The first Pillar is Faith.
We tend to our faith, and our faith tends to us.
It takes faith to plant the seed, it takes faith to water it, to keep the bugs off day after day… but in the end the fruit is just so sweet!
The soil of your heart is your responsibility.
3 Keys Areas to Grow Your Faith
Bringing
Obeying
Obedience is all about putting our faith into action. It is about trusting God enough to do what He says.
Obedience proves our faith.
Obedience offers us many promises.
Obedience changes us.
14 Obey God because you are his children; don’t slip back into your old ways—doing evil because you knew no better. 15 But be holy now in everything you do, just as the Lord is holy, who invited you to be his child.
1 Peter 1:14-15 TLB
If our faith doesn’t change us, it’s pointless.
Keeping
“Even as the angry vengeful thoughts boiled through me, I saw the sin of them. Jesus Christ had died for this man; was I going to ask for
more? Lord Jesus, I prayed, forgive me and help me to forgive
him....Jesus, I cannot forgive him. Give me your forgiveness....And so I
discovered that it is not on our forgiveness any more than on our
goodness that the world's healing hinges, but on his. When he tells us
to love our enemies, he gives along with the command, the love itself.”
-Corrie Ten Boom
When we keep our faith in our everyday, it strengthens us to be able to
keep it in our darkest hour.
