A Faith like Abraham's

How many times have we asked God for things we want and expect them to be delivered? We think, "God, if you love me so.. why don't good things happen? Why aren't my prayers answered? Why are all these crap coming my way now?"

Is it not incredibly self-centred and bratty of us to ask of that?

I pray for a transformation of heart and mind, so that I can ask God for what He wants of me. For Him to show me, go before me and soften the path, guide me as I follow His path for me obediently. So that I can surrender everything at His altar, so that I can enjoy His peace and love everyday while serving Him.

".. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen"

Hebrews 11:1

I pray for faith that we may stay on His path, for the patience to pull through the equipping that is to come. That we will be able to hear his confirmation so clearly, that we may go as soon as He calls us to.

I pray for a faith like Abraham's, who got out of his comfort zone and set up home in a foreign land just because God called him to.

"... for he waited for the city which has foundations, whose builder and architect is God."

Hebrews 11:10

When your life goals are in line with God's plan for you, things will simply fall into place.
