Faith

I did some reading today in 1 Peter which was exactly what I needed.  The past few months my faith has grown tremendously and my connection with God has sky rocketed.  I began to think about my family and loved ones and how I long for each and every one of them to experience this kind of faith.  I realize everyone is different and at different levels in their own lives when it comes to faith but I can't help but long for others to truly experience it as I have.  When you walk in faith and take your life one day at a time just know that the enemy will try and stomp on your dreams.  The enemy will try and squander your faith because that is what he does best and he does not want us to be close to God.  We cannot see God as Moses once did and we cannot walk with Him as Peter once did, but we can have faith that He is who He is and He has been here all along.

1 Peter 1:8-9, "Though you have not seen Him, you love Him; and even though you do not see Him now, you believe in Him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls."
