Faith

30 Days of Thanksgiving, Day 7

Today’s word is faith.

I’m thankful for my faith in God. I’m sure some who read this will think I’m a nut. I don’t care. He’s gotten me through a lot of hard times. I’ve personally witnessed miracles. This world wants me to think I’m crazy for believing in God. I think it’s sad not to because I’d have nothing to rely on. What would be the point of life? Why would I bother following a moral code or compass? Might as well do what I want, get what I want and take advantage of people, as long as it benefits me.

But my faith keeps me grounded. During the past few years, I could have been in a panic, but I wasn’t. My family continued on despite the terror gripping society. I continued with work, we continued with homeschooling and Bible studies were hosted in our home. Without our faith in God, we would surely have spiraled into despair and depression. So I’m thankful not just for my faith, but for God.

“I will give thanks to you, LORD, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.” Ps. 9:1
