hey guys! i hope ur having a great day today i just wanted to share something that i was reading......(but it might need some thinking :)
Faith endures "as seeing Him who is invicible" (Heb.11:27); endures the disappointments, the hardships, and the heart-aches of life, by recognizing that all comes from the hand of Him who is too wise to err and too loving to be unkind. But so long as we are occupied with any other object than God Himself, there will be neither rest for the heart nor peace for the mind. But when we recieve all that enters our lives as from His hand, then, no matter what may be our circumstances or surroundings- we shall be enabled to say, "The lines are fallen unto me in pleasent places" (ps.16:6). But that is the language of faith, not of sight nor of sense.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The unbeliever is "of the world," judges everything by wordly standards, views life from the standpoint of time and senses and weighs everything in the balances of his own carnal understanding. But the man of faith brings in God, looks at everything for His standpoint, estimates values by spiritual standards, and views life in the light of eternity. Doing this, he recieves whatever comes as if from the hand of God.- his heart is calm in the midst of the storm. and he rejoices in hope of the glory of God. __ by AW pink
