Faith
doesn't mean letting God
make the easy choices.
Faith-
real faith-
is about the hard choices.
When following God
means getting hurt
and making choices
you just don't want
to make-
but making them anyway.
Despite the pain,
despite the fear,
despite the uncertainty.
Faith
is making those choices
without knowing the reason
why-
but knowing a reason
exists.
Faith
is how I can stand
by this choice.
Even when I don't understand,
even though it hurts
more terribly than anything,
I know that somehow
everything will work out
if I can only
step out
in faith.
