This morning, I have something for us all to ask ourselves. Something that I think is very important for us to look at. To self reflect. Something that can help us keep our priorities straight. So here we go. What do you have faith in? Yourself? Your family? Do you have faith in your employees? What about your favorite sports team? What is it that you put your faith in? Such an important question.
Nothing wrong with having faith in any of those things I mentioned in our day-to-day lives here on earth. I think it helps us have hope that all of those things are successful. And that might even motivate us to help those things to be successful. But there’s something more important about faith that we need to realize. Faith is such a key part of our relationship with God. It is the glue that ties us to God. Without faith, we really don’t have any relationship with God. And it’s in Romans that scripture tells us, “It is through faith that a righteous person has life.” So our lives serving our Lord and Savior require us to have faith.
So maybe today is a good day to take a moment and analyze yourself. Actually, let’s be more direct. Make today a day to take a moment and analyze yourself. See where your faith is. See where you put it. Is it time to re-prioritize? Maybe it’s time for you to really determine what your relationship with God looks like. That’s the challenge today. To work on putting your faith in God. Knowing that he will see you through whatever it is you face. Knowing that your relationship with him is built on your faith in him. He wants you to love him. He wants you to put your faith in him. He wants these things, because he loves you. Always has. Always will.
