How to find faith in a time of hardship

Faith means you step forward based on what is in your heart and not what is in your circumstances.   

Though this can be some of the hardest and scariest times you are facing today, do not let the worry of the unknown overtake you. 

In difficult times and dangerous times, we don’t look around, we look up and that really tells you something.   

You have to pray and not worry because when you pray and than worry, the worry nullifies your prayer. Prayer is something you do INSTEAD of worry. 

God is with you and He is on your side. Worry sees the problem but it doesn’t see God. 

Have you every been brought out of a situation you never thought you would recover from or see the light at the end of the tunnel, yet you made it through? This was God bringing you on your path of betterment. I have many stories of my own being in this same situation. He is here and he is taking care of you. 

Everyone wants the miracle but no one wants to be in the crisis to get to the miracle. The bigger the problem the bigger the miracle. We like miracles but not the problems that go with them. But this is a part of life. We will always face crisis and feel like nothing can be done, but God can make things happen that your mind doesn’t even think is possible.

For example, so many diseases and illnesses are now believed to be incurable, as if God doesn’t have the ability to change that. To offer a miracle. But you have to believe and you have to pray and you have to believe when you pray. So many believe that God doesn’t do much anymore, doesn’t offer miracles because of how far from faith our society has turned and we quickly forget all the miraculous things God did perform in our past and our life. 

Most of the worry of trouble you had in life never happened. How many of you worried so much about something that you knew was going to be a disaster and it never happened?

Even the messengers, prophets, saints were facing difficulties and hardships, but God is more concerned with your character than your comfort. This isn’t the comfort side of life; this is the learning side of life. And some things you only learn through difficulties. 

The feeling of fear is natural, it is about not letting it control you. So pray, believe in your prayers, and believe in the higher power of the Almighty.
