How we handle troubles and difficulties and challenges is a real proof of our faith. Our friends who know that we are Christians want to see how we handle tough times. We say we are Christians, we say we can trust God, we say He can do anything.
We say He can do all of that - but do we live like we believe it?
In times of crisis and uncertainty people are looking for hope and a a way to get through it. Hopefully by this time our families and friends and co-workers know that we are believers. They know that we are ‘people of faith’ so they look to see what our faith does for us. They look to see if faith works.
The truth is that true faith does work. True faith makes a difference in how we live every single day. True faith makes me respond differently in crisis. True faith gives me hope that people around me don’t have. True faith is seen in true actions and true responses.
We speak of Christ, at least I hope we do. We say we love Him. We say we trust Him. We say the God is our Heavenly Father. But do our actions prove our faith or do they fit in perfectly with the rest of the world.
This current time of crisis and mostly uncertainty is a perfect opportunity for us to be examples of faith. Now is the time for us to make a difference even as a world lives in fear and confusion we need to be rocks of stability because our faith is in the One who controls it all.
