Faith 101 : Full Assurance In Trusting Him

What is faith?

The dictionary says: faith is confidence or trust in a person or thing; belief in God or in the doctrines or teachings of religion.

I say: Faith is remembering I'm God's priceless treasure when I feel simply worthless .

The Bible says: “Now faith is the SUBSTANCE of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” (Hebrews 11:1)

The Bible tells us that we have all been given a certain “measure of faith” by God in which to work with.

“… as God has dealt to each one a MEASURE OF FAITH …(Romans 12:3)

How do you measure and understand faith? I honestly don’t know but as the bible says, the faith in a size of a mustard seed can move a mountain (mustard seed is one of the smallest of all seeds).

“… because your FAITH GROWS EXCEEDINGLY …” (2 Thessalonians 1:3)

Most people will be likely to have faith in the scale of 1-3 but like the mustard seed, faith is capable of growing. If a mustard seed can move mountains, it only means that having a scale of 1-3 faith in the Lord wasn’t that bad and you actually do not have to have our faith levels up in the 5-8 categories to get God to become very active in our lives. All we need is a very small amount of faith to get the show going with God.


How to increase faith?  

“So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.(Romans 10:17)

Reading” the Bible on your own or “hearing” someone else preach or teach about the Bible. Either way, the Word of God is entering into your mind where you actually receive it.
then the low amount of faith that you have started out with will actually start to grow. Why?

Because your mind is receiving direct information and knowledge about God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit and all of Their ways. As you start to read all about God in the Bible and all of the miracles that He has done in the past with other people – then your own personal levels of faith will start to grow and build up on the inside of you because you are actually starting to believe what you are reading. The Holy Spirit will also be bearing witness on the inside of you that what you are reading is real, pure, God-truth. The other catch on this is that it really is the Holy Spirit who will be the One to build up your faith on the inside and cause it to grow into these higher ranges over time. This is something that He magically does for all of us. All of a sudden, your faith has just gone from a 1 to a 2.Then a little further down the road, your faith will grow from a 2 to a 3 – and so on. However, the Holy Spirit will not cause your faith to grow into these higher levels unless your are actively seeking after knowledge about God. And the Bible is the #1 source of knowledge that we have about God on this earth.

If you do not continue to seek after knowledge about God and all of His ways through the study of Scripture, then your faith will stagnate – it will stop growing!

This is why the Bible says that your faith will grow by hearing the Word of God. In other words, your faith will grow as you continue to increase your knowledge base about the Lord, especially through the study of Scripture.

When you are hearing the Word of God – you are increasing your knowledge levels about the Lord, and that is what will cause the Holy Spirit to raise your faith to these higher levels over a period of time.

When you start reading all of the healings that Jesus did, all the healings that the apostles did, and all of the verses on how God can heal and answer your prayers – your faith will start to grow and build up on the inside of you. Maybe from a 1 to a 3 or 4. That 3 or 4 may then be just enough faith and belief that God will need to heal you. But before He will heal you, He may want your faith levels built up to that range.

And it is built up to that range by soaking into all the Bible verses pertaining to divine healing. Your faith is growing as you are “hearing” the Word of God on this issue. “Hearing” in this case means you are reading the Bible verses for yourself and believing what you are reading.

It is the “Word and the Spirit” working together that will really cause your personal, faith levels to increase over time. When you start reading and studying the Bible in order to increase your knowledge base about the Lord, and at the same time establish a close, personal relationship with the Lord – you will have set a fuse to powerful bomb – a 1-2 punch so to speak.

You have to have both – “knowledge” that the Word will give you and “power” that the Holy Spirit will flow through you. You can increase the levels of your faith and the levels of your anointing in the Lord by establishing a close, personal relationship with Him – and by studying the Bible for increased knowledge about God. Do both of those, and over a period of time your faith levels will eventually grow from the 1-2 levels to the 8-10 levels.

Smith Wigglesworth was called the “apostle of faith” because his faith was operating in these higher levels with God. This is why he had so many dramatic miracles in his ministry. He had the higher levels of faith to believe God for the bigger miracles and as a result, God would do the bigger and mightier miracles for this man – all simply because he had his faith operating up in these higher ranges. And the only Book he had ever read was the Bible!

This is why getting your personal faith levels up in the 5-10 category is so powerful. God will be able to do mightier and more powerful miracles through you if your faith is operating at those higher levels with Him!

But your faith does not grow to these levels overnight. This is a building process that will occur over years, not months. This is why the apostle Paul calls our walk with God the “fight of faith.” We have to fight for, to strive for, to press further on to get our faith levels to increase over time with God.

How your faith can decrease?

Just as your faith can grow, your faith can also wane or decrease. Bad things can happen to you. Adversity has just struck. You felt like you just got hit with a two-by-four. All of sudden, you will feel your faith levels drop from a 5 to a 2. Then you have to fight to get it back up to that 5 level. You do this the way athletes do when they go into slumps. They give themselves pep talks.

It’s the same way in God’s realm. From time to time, you will have to give yourself pep talks to keep your faith levels from dropping too low when adversity hits you. You will have to tell yourself that you are not nuts, that God has been with you all this time, that there is a reason for this adversity, that you cannot give up and that God will eventually bail you out and deliver you.
If you stay with these pep talks, then over a certain period of time your mind will start believing what your pep talks are telling you to believe. The Holy Spirit will then start to move back up on you and you will then feel your faith levels start moving back up to the level where they were initially at before you got knocked off course by the storm cloud. This is how you stay in the game.

And from time to time, God will arrange to have your personal faith levels tested – to see if you will continue to hold fast and stay the course with Him until the trial has ended. It’s easy to have high levels of faith in God when everything is going good and great. But let any kind of adversity strike, and many Christians will all of sudden lose their faith in God.

The story of Moses and the Israelites in the wilderness is a perfect example. All of the Israelites over 20 years of age did not make it into the Promised Land – all because their faith was not operating at high enough levels to believe that God could actually overcome the giants and strongholds they saw in the Promised Land. Since they did not have enough faith and belief in God to overcome their enemies in the Promised Land, God would not allow them to enter in.
He then only allowed Joshua, Caleb and the younger generation under 20 years of age to enter in – all because they did have high enough levels of faith and belief that God could overcome these giants and give them this land as their possession! And God proved them right! Joshua was completely victorious in gaining every ounce of land that his foot had stepped on – all because his faith and belief in the Lord was so strong.

Faith is your lifeline to the Lord. Lose your faith in the Lord, and you will lose all contact with Him.

As I have said before, throw all of the temper tantrums you want, wrestle with God over certain issues you are really struggling with – but do not ever lose your faith in the Lord and quit and walk off of His playing field.

We Are Saved by Grace Through Faith

“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9)  

“Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we also have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.” (Romans 5:1-2)

Faith Without Works is Dead

“Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead … Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect? … You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only … For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.” (James 2:17-26)


This tell us in no uncertain terms that our faith in the Lord has to be backed up with good works, and if it is not, then our faith will be considered “dead” in the eyes of God. In other words, faith without works is dead.
Look what it says about Abraham. Abraham obviously had great faith in the Lord, but he still had to back up that great faith with good works. When Abraham was willing to put his one and only son Isaac on altar to sacrifice him because God was asking him to do this for Him, Abraham had to show God that he was now willing to put his faith into major action with Him. If Abraham would not have done this, his faith would have been considered dead in the eyes of God, since he would not have been willing to back up his faith in the Lord with a specific type of action and work.


Faith all by itself with the Lord will not get the job done. You have to be willing to put your faith into major action with the Lord, and the only way you can do this is by being willing to do specific types of works for Him down here in this life.
The last line of the above verse really sums all of this up very nicely. It says that just as the body would be dead without the spirit, so our faith without any type of works to back it up will also be considered dead in the eyes of the Lord.
Once you get saved through your faith in Jesus, God will now expect you to come and “work” for Him. He now has a perfect plan and destiny all set up for your life. And in that perfect plan and destiny for your life will be all of the “good works” you will be doing for the Lord. And if you are willing to do these types of good works for the Lord, then your faith will not be considered dead in His eyes, but fully alive, and He will then appropriately reward you for those good works once you enter into heaven to be with Him for all of eternity.


Faith the Size of a Mustard Seed Will Move Mountains

What I believe God is trying to tell us is that though He will give each person a certain measure of faith to start out with, for most of us, that certain measure will be probably be on the lower end of the scale. In other words, it might only be faith in the 1-3 categories. But over time, that faith can start to increase on the inside of you as you read and study the Bible for yourself.
But even though you might have low levels of faith in the Lord to start out with, do not let that discourage you or set you back, as all you need is a very small amount of faith in Him to get the show going with Him. In other words, God will take whatever small amount of faith you may have in Him, and from there, He will then start to work in your life to build it up in the specific directions that He will want it to go in.

All God needs is your full consent and a little bit of faith mixed in with it to get it all going with Him. And these next two verses will spell all of that out for you. Here are two extremely powerful verses giving all of us this revelation from the Lord.

So the Lord said, “If you have faith as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be pulled up by the roots and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.” (Luke 17:6)
 
Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why could we not cast him out?” So Jesus said to them, “Because of your unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.” (Matthew 17:19-20)

Faith to Faith – Strength to Strength

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “the just shall live by faith.” (Romans 1:16-17)
 
I believe it is telling us that we can go from one level of faith to the next level of faith.
“Blessed is the man whose strength is in You, whose heart is set on pilgrimage … They go from strength to strength.” (Psalm 84:5-7)

It tells us that we can actually go from one level of strength to the next level of strength with the Lord – which means we can actually get stronger in our both our faith levels and our strength levels in the Lord. 

We Walk by Faith not by Sight

“For we walk by faith, not by sight.” (2 Corinthians 5:7)
We walk by faith and not by sight. In other words, we walk by our faith in the Lord and we do what He tells us to do in this life. We do not walk by our sight, our wisdom, or what the world is trying to tell us is the right thing to do. 
Example – you failed in a lot of subjects in your school. The situation is serious and you might get kick out of the school. This is where you will now have to put this verse into major action. If you depend on what you “see” with how bad things are right now, you will then start to get very upset and discouraged, and from there, you will then start to doubt that even God Himself will be able to overcome this hurdle for you and lead you to the next thing He will want you to do. 
What you are now doing is depending on what you are seeing with your natural eye. However, this is where you have to back off with what you are seeing with your natural eye and then start to try and see all of this through the eyes of God.If nothing is impossible with God, then this means that God can obviously bring you to a new direction very quickly. You now have to put all of your faith and trust in God, not putting your faith in what you are seeing with your natural eye and your natural mind.

“But the just shall live by his faith.” (Habakkuk 2:4)

“Now the just shall live by faith; but if anyone draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him.” (Hebrews 10:38)
 
“I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.” (Galatians 2:20)
 
“But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.” (Hebrews 11:6) 

Bottom line – once you have fully surrendered your entire being and your entire life into the Lord’s hands for His full direction and handling, from this point on you have to live this life as a life of faith directly in the Lord – not a life of faith in yourself, your parents, your best friends, or any part of this world.
God is now your Lord and Master and all of your faith now has to be directly in Him. And the sooner you can learn this principle and get it worked into your own personal walk with the Lord, the better your life is going to be in the Lord.

Do Not Doubt or Waver in Your Faith


“If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.” (James 1:5-8)
 
“My brethren, do not hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with partiality.” (James 2:1)
 
“Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.” (Hebrews 10:23)
 
So Jesus answered and said to them, “Assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but also if you say to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ it will be done. And all things, whatever you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.” (Matthew 21:21-22)
 
“For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast in to the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will come to pass, he will have whatever he says. Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.” (Mark 11:23-24)
 
And Peter answered Him and said, “Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.” So He said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!” And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught Him, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” (Matthew 14:28-31)

It is very easy to have high levels of faith in the Lord when everything is going good and great – but let any kind of a vicious storm cloud come knocking on your door, and all of a sudden your high levels of faith in the Lord can actually start to waver and drop on you. And then notice what this verse says if that should ever happen to you – that you will then become like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind, and from there, you will become a double-minded man who will become unstable in all of his ways.

The reason you will become unstable in all of your ways is because you will have lost direct contact with the one Person who could get you through this vicious storm cloud in the first place, and that one Person is the Lord Himself. That is why you can never lose your faith in the Lord, or let it start to waver and drop on you. If you do, you will then become like a ping-pong ball, constantly going back and forth between your faith in God, and your faith in yourself and with what you are seeing with your own natural eyes. This is why you always have to keep your eyes on Jesus, especially when you are having to face a heavier type of storm cloud.

If you jump to the very last verse, this is exactly what happened with Peter when he started to walk on water with Jesus. As long as Peter kept his eyes on Jesus, he was just fine and he had no problems in being able to walk on that water. But as soon as he takes his eyes off of Jesus and puts them on the boisterous winds all around him, that is when he starts to sink. And from there, Jesus tells him that he is of little faith and why did he start to doubt to begin with.
he second verse then adds more to this when it tells us that we should not hold our faith in the Lord with any kind of partiality. The word “partiality” means “favoritism, tendency to favor unfairly, bias.”

These first two verses alone are telling us that God wants all of our faith to be totally in Him and then once we do that, not to let our faith start to waver or let any kind of doubt start to creep in. I have learned over the years that it is much easier to keep my faith up in the Lord and let Him work out any personal problems I may encounter instead of getting all bent out of shape.


In the verses above on Jesus telling us that we can move mountains if we have faith the size of a mustard seed – now He is adding one other factor into all of this – and that one other factor is to have a type of faith in Him that will not waver. And once you start to let any type of doubt creep in, then your faith will start to waver and drop on you.
You can really tell by how all of these verses are being worded, that not only does God want all of us to have a very strong type of faith in Him, but He wants this faith to be the type that will not waver or drop on Him.

All Things Are Possible to Him Who Believes

Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.” (Mark 9:23)
 
As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, He said to the ruler of the synagogue, “Do not be afraid; only believe.” (Mark 5:36)
 
“With God all things are possible.” (Matthew 19:26)
 
“For with God nothing will be impossible.” (Luke 1:37)
 
But He said, “The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.” (Luke 18:27)
 
“For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world – our faith.” (1 John 5:4)

These will really help increase your faith in the Lord. Once you fully understand that God is all-powerful and that there is absolutely nothing that He cannot do, then you will be able to put all of your faith and trust in Him because you will realize there is no one else you can do this with in your life. You cannot do it with yourself, your parents, or your best friends. Only God is all-perfect and all-powerful, and He thus is the only One you can put all of your faith and trust in.

God Will Test Your Faith Levels From Time to Time

From time to time, God will arrange for circumstances to occur in your personal life where He will purposely test your faith levels in Him. And when He does start to do this with you, it is very important that you take these faith tests very seriously and do your best to pass them so you can be kept on the divine path and destiny that He already has set up for you and your life.

“In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved by various trials, that the genuiness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ … receiving the end of your faith, the salvation of your souls.” (1 Peter 1:6-9)
 
“But He knows the way that I take; when He has tested me, I shall come forth as gold.” (Job 23:10)


Be Faithful Until Death

  Do not fear any of those things which you are about to suffer … Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life.” (Revelation 2:10)
 
  “… let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith …” (Hebrews 12:2)
 
  “Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called …” (1 Timothy 6:12)
 
 “If indeed you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast …” (Colossians 1:23)
 
 “Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong.” (1 Corinthians 16:13)
 
  “For the Lord preserves the faithful …” (Psalm 31:23)
 
  “Therefore do not cast away your confidence which has great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise.” (Hebrews 10:35)
 
 “… but Christ as a Son over His own house, whose house we are if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm to the end.” ((Hebrews 3:6)
 
  “And he who overcomes, and keeps My works until the end, to him I will give power over the nations.” (Revelation 2:26)
 
  “To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.” (Revelation 3:21)
 
  “He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life; but I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels.” (Revelation 3:5)
 
 “For God is not unjust to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister. And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end, that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.” (Hebrews 6:10-12)

God will be rewarding us up in heaven according to all of our good labors down here on this earth. And if you can keep your personal faith levels up in the Lord during your entire lifetime, then you will fully complete all of your divine assignments for Him, and from there, you will then be appropriately and highly rewarded once you enter into heaven.


Do Not Ever Lose Your Faith in the Lord
 
“And He did not do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.” (Matthew 13:58)
 
“So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.” (Hebrews 3:19)
 
“… but the word which they heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard it. For we who have believed do enter that rest …” (Hebrews 4:2-3)
 
“Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God; but exhort one another daily, while it is called “Today,” lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end.” (Hebrews 3:12-14)
 
You will say then, “Branches were broken off that I might be grafted in.” Well said. Because of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Do not be haughty, but fear. For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either. Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you will also be cut off. And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.” (Romans 11:19-23)

The branch of a tree cannot live if it is not connected to the trunk of that tree. And in the same way, we cannot live in the Lord unless we stay fully connected to the vine, which is Jesus. And what keeps us fully connected to Jesus like the branch is with the vine? It is our faith in Him. This is why I call our faith in the Lord our “lifeline” to Him, for without it, we will never be able to connect to the Lord.

In other words, if you ever lose your faith and belief in the Lord, and from there, start to depart from Him, God will see this as an evil type of heart and from there, you will then be cut off from Him just like a branch can be cut off from the tree.
When you put all of these verses together on faith, you can see very clearly what the Lord is trying to show all of us. If you ever find yourself having to go through any kind of real adversity in this life, and you then start to feel your faith levels in the Lord start to shake a bit, and from there, some doubt starts to creep in, sit down with this article in hand and study very carefully all of these specific verses on faith.

These verses will be your lifesaver if you ever find yourself having to face a trial that is on the heavier side. Remember who we serve and who we are connected too in this life. We are not connected to the world, our friends, or our parents. We are directly connected to God Almighty Himself, and within His being is maximum power to be able to handle any type of extreme situation that could ever come our way in this life. And if God has maximum power, then He will be able to easily handle any type of heavier storm cloud that may attempt to come against you in this life.

Again, stand on the verses, where these verses are telling us that with God, all things are possible – and with God, nothing will be impossible. These statements all by themselves are showing us how powerful and awesome our God really is.

And to be able to make this kind of a direct connection to the Lord will only require one simple little thing from you, and that one simple little thing is that you be willing to have some measure of faith in this great and awesome God of ours. Your faith direct to God is the lifeline that will get you plugged into Him. Faith is what connects the branch to the vine when the Bible uses the analogy to show how we are directly connected to Jesus.

We as the branches connected to Jesus are able to directly connect to Him just like a branch is to a tree trunk. And what is connecting us direct to Jesus is simply our faith and belief in Him. Keep your faith up and alive in the Lord and you will stay forever “branched into Jesus” for all of eternity.

Get it settled in your mind and your spirit that you will forever keep your faith in the Lord fully intact and fully alive – and that you will never, ever let it waver on you or cause you to want to pull away from Him. If you do, you see what the last set of verses are trying to tell you.

If you ever start to lose your faith in the Lord and you then start to pull back on Him for any extended length of time, you could end up disconnecting from Him just like a branch can get fully disconnected from a tree. And just like a natural branch will wither and die once it is fully disconnected from the tree, in the same way you could lose everything and literally die in the Lord if you ever fully disconnect from Him.
  1. Your faith is your one and only connection to the Lord down here on this earth
     
  2. Your faith in the Lord is what will keep God moving and working on your behalf
     
  3. Your faith in the Lord is what will get God to fight some of your battles for you
     
  4. Your faith in the Lord is what will move mountains out of your way in this life
     
  5. Your faith in the Lord is what will lead you to your divine destiny in the Lord
     
  6. Your faith in the Lord is what will get God to lead you to the person He will want you to marry in this life
     
  7. Your faith in the Lord is what will get God to release His anointing on your life so you can then become very good at whatever He will be calling you to do for Him in this life
     
  8. Your faith in the Lord is what will release His healing power into any situation where you may need it
     
  9. Your faith in the Lord is what will get you through every single storm cloud you will ever have to face in this life

 
You only have one of two options you can take in this life. You can either put all of your faith, trust and belief in the Lord and then fully follow Him to your last dying breath – or you can put all of your faith in either yourself, your parents, your best friends, or the world in general.

With God being the only One who is all-perfect and all-powerful, I do not think it takes a rocket scientist to see who you should be following in this life and who you should be putting all of your faith and trust in.

Bottom line – let it go, decide that you will fully trust God from this moment on – and from there, make sure that you keep your faith levels fully intact with the Lord, no matter what life, hell or the devil may try and throw your way to knock you off course.

Stay fully faithful to the Lord to your last dying breath – and the Lord will stay fully faithful to you to the day you depart from this life and enter into heaven to be with Him for all of eternity.


"When you have hope, you have faith, and when you have faith, you have everything."


Have Faith in the Lord

"Trust in the Lord and do good; so you will live in the land, and enjoy security. Take delight in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act. Be still before the Lord, and wait patiently for him." (Psalm 37:3-5,7a) 

So what if my life falls apart? I still Have God, and I could always have a fresh start with Him and my Family :) Every trials and challenges is part of our life and I won't dare to question God why I undergo these trials and challenges. Because I never questioned Him when I experienced Joy and Victory. I'll just hold on to my faith and believe that everything is in His hands. Whatever may happen, It's all God's Will and I have enough faith to believe that its all happening for us to be a better person. :)
