Faith is like a stream,
it has its ups and downs
but, when you trust in Jesus
it can turn your life around.
One day it may rise,
the next day it may fall
but, every day it’s for certain
on Jesus, you can always call.
Faith is like an ocean,
it comes and goes in waves
but, when anchored unto Jesus
from the raging tide, it saves.
Sometimes it is powerful,
other times it ebbs in and out
but, when it’s secure in Jesus
it will rise above your doubt.
Faith is like a river,
it can be quiet or rumbling
but, when you hold on to Jesus
you’ll walk without stumbling.
It may be dry one day,
but, it never will cease to flow
for, when you trust in Jesus
your faith will only grow!

Matthew 21:21
King James Version
“Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you,
If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this
which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto
this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea;
it shall be done.”

It is only when I let the enemy pull wool over my eyes that I start to question my faith . . . but once I shoo him out of there . . . it comes rushing back in! ~ Blessings ~

This is so true. The best thing about this week, for me, is that I saw again: how I feel, doesn’t change the reality that Jesus is the SAME inside me all the time. God bless you BIG–love, sis Caddo

The ups and downs, ins and outs of faith can be just like a wild river raft adventure . . . but as long as I am anchored on to Jesus . . . I know there are calmer waters ahead! ~ Blessings ~
