Faith To Get Us Through




We are living right now in a time of uncertainty. Covid-19 has changed what our daily lives look like. Many are fearful and afraid of what is going to happen and that is understandable, but we have hope and it comes from God. We have hope and Faith in God and know He is still on the Throne and God has this. We just have to trust, pray, and believe.


So what is Faith? In Webster’s dictionary it says: Faith (1): firm belief in something for which there is no proof (2): complete trust.
In the bible it says faith is believing in that which can not be seen. Heb. 11:1 “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” (KJV) So faith is believing without seeing. Faith in God is believing in Him and trusting God in every way.  God has a plan and we can trust in him.  This is why as believers even in times like these we can have peace, hope and not fear.



 John 14:27 KJV













The one thing we know that God is always in control and that we can trust Him no matter what. He holds our hand and guides us through if we turn to him.







Just like the lighthouse pictured here God is our light to guide us in good times and the storms of life. His light always shines bright and as long as we keep our eyes on the light we will not stray or get lost. I see the lighthouse and I remember that though storms in life come along God is with us lighting our way all we have to do is rely on Him. A verse I like says to not be afraid or discouraged in fact it is a command and one I think of when storms come my way.
Joshua 1:9  NIV "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”


Here is a poem I wrote awhile back I will share again with you. I hope it will lift you up


My Life’s Light

I will trust you where ever you lead me
I will trust you in both the calm and stormy seas
I will follow the path you set before me
I will lean on your love and hope you give me freely
For you are the light that guides my path along my way
You are my guide through each and every day
Like the captain on the sea I will look to the light
Always keeping that beam in my sight.
For you my Lord, are my light
On whom I will keep my sight
