My faith is not very strong. I say that it is and would like to believe it is. But it’s really not. I long for the faith of the disciples who immediately left everything and followed Jesus; especially the faith of Peter who just stepped right out of His comfort zone and into uncharted waters. But when the rubber meets the road, I doubt. I question and I wonder. I know God hears and knows the hidden secrets of my heart and I long to have a faith that never wavers.

Today as we served our fourth breakfast I had the opportunity to pray with a woman to receive Christ. It was an incredible time and I am humbled by the experience. Yet all day I have thought about that woman and wondered if God really heard the whispers of her heart? Will He draw near to her as He promises? Will she truly know and understand the life-giving grace of her Saviour? Or will her difficult circumstances drown out His voice as she struggles to make it through the day?

The great news is that I am not responsible for the outcome. As a friend of mine likes to remind me, “The book has already been written. He is just revealing it to you one page at a time.” I wish I never doubted, but when I do I try to  remember the facts.

The facts are these:

- God loves the woman I met today

-God has a plan for her life

-God is sovereign and in control of EVERY situation

-I can rest assured that He is constantly working for her good and for His glory

-I can only follow, depend and obey

Hebrews 10:23- “Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful.”
